Emmy-winner Anna Gunn, of "Breaking Bad" fame, aims to dominate the male-dominated world of Wall Street in the new trailer for the finance thriller "Equity."
Receiving some good notices at this year's Sundance, the film sees Gunn as Naomi Bishop, an ambitiously aggressive investment banker who, while climbing the corporate ladder, gets embroiled in a web of cronyism and corruption.
Directed by Meera Menon (Farah Goes Bang) from a screenplay written by New York playwright-screenwriter Amy Fox (Heights), the film also stars James Purefoy (The Following), Sarah Megan Thomas (Backwards), Alysia Reiner (Orange Is the New Black), Lee Tergesen (The Americans), and Samuel Roukin (TURN: Washington's Spies).
"Equity" will open in New York and Los Angeles on July 29th, with other cities to follow.
