It’s been 15 years since has acted in a movie and 18 years since he stepped behind the camera, so the return of the Hollywood legend as both actor and director in should be enough to pique the curiosity of anyone with a sense of film history. But if a 79-year-old living legend isn’t enough, this film also features delightful young actors like and , a supporting cast stacked with some of your favorite actors, and a new trailer that makes Beatty’s return to the silver screen look like a charming, frothy, and likable time at the movies.
Rules Don’t Apply finds Beatty playing Howard Hughes, the legendary and reclusive billionaire, business tycoon, and movie studio mogul who contributed his fair share of insane stories to Hollywood’s ever-expanding, lurid mythology. Ehrenreich, who starred in another old school Hollywood story earlier this year with the wonderful Hail, Caesar! and will soon put on Han Solo’s iconic vest, plays one of Hughes’ drivers. Collins, whose credits include Mirror Mirror and The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, plays a young actress under contract with Hughes. Naturally, those two beautiful young people fall in love. Naturally, Mr. Hughes has a rule against his employees dating. Hijinks of the low-key (too much ice cream!) and the, uh, high-key (plane disasters!) ensue.
