The official trailer for The Banker, starring Anthony Mackie, Samuel L Jackson, Jessie T. Usher, Nia Long, and Nicholas Hoult has been released.

Based on a story by David Lewis Smith, Stan Younger and Brad Caleb Kane, The Banker follows a true story of revolutionary businessmen Bernard Garrett (Mackie) and Joe Morris (Jackson), who devise an audacious and risky plan to take on the racially oppressive establishment of the 1960s by helping other African Americans pursue the American dream. Along with Garrett’s wife Eunice (Long), they train a working-class white man, Matt Steiner (Hoult), to pose as the rich and privileged face of their burgeoning real estate and banking empire – while Garrett and Morris pose as a janitor and a chauffeur. Their success ultimately draws the attention of the federal government, which threatens everything the four have built.

The movie is produced by Brad Feinstein under his Romulus Entertainment banner, along with producers Nolfi, Nnamdi Asomugha, Jonathan Baker, David Lewis Smith, and Mackie himself.

The Banker will initially premiere in theaters on December 6, then debut on Apple TV+ in January 2020. Watch the full trailer above.
