THE DAMNED UNITED Movie Trailer & Picture

Check out the trailer and a picture for THE DAMNED UNITED starring Michael Sheen, Timothy Spall, Jim Broadbent, and directed by Tom Hooper.

This movie is definitely geared towards football fans, but I think that people that enjoy good performances might want to check it out as well, because Michael Sheen looks really brilliant in the trailer.

The Damned United has been released in the UK, but there is no US release date yet. Watch the trailer below.

The Damned United Synopsis: Set in 1960s and 1970s England, THE DAMNED UNITED tells the confrontational and darkly humorous story of Brian Cloughs doomed 44 day tenure as manager of the reigning champions of English football Leeds United. Previously managed by his bitter rival Don Revie (Colm Meaney), and on the back of their most successful period ever as a football club, Leeds had an aggressive and cynical style of football – an anathema to the principled yet flamboyant Brian Clough, who had achieved astonishing success as manager of Hartlepool and Derby County building teams in his own vision with trusty lieutenant Peter Taylor. Taking the Leeds job without Taylor by his side, with a changing room full of Dons boys, would lead to an unheralded examination of Cloughs belligerence and brilliance over 44 days. This is that story. The story of The Damned United. Jim Broadbent plays Sam Longson, Derby Chairman.
