The American - Trailer 2

For all George Clooney's fans out there, in this September, you are going to watch the performance of our academy Award winner George Clooney in the title role of the suspense thriller movie called The American.

This movie is filmed on location in Italy. Alone among assassins, Jack (Clooney) is a master craftsman. When a job in Sweden ends more harshly than expected for this American abroad, he vows to his contact that his next assignment will be his last.

Jack reports to the Italian countryside, where he holes up in a small town and relishes being away from death for a spell. The assignment, as specified by a Belgian woman, Mathilde (Thekla Reuten of "In Bruges"), is in the offing as a weapon is constructed.

Surprising himself, Jack seeks out the friendship of local priest Father Benedetto (Italian stage and screen veteran Paolo Bonacelli) and pursues romance with local woman Clara (Italian leading lady Violante Placido). But by stepping out of the shadows, Jack may be tempting fate.

The casts are Bruce Altman, Thekla Reuten, Paolo Bonacelli, Violante Placido and George Clooney. Directed by Anton Corbijn. This movie will be in theaters starting on September 1, 2010.
