How have Sir Ian McKellen and Dame Helen Mirren never been in a film together before now? Britain, what have you been doing? (Actually, don’t answer that.)
The Good Liar is here to fix this egregious oversight, though. With Sir Ian as a con artist and Dame Helen as his wealthy mark, it looks a bit more Six Degrees Of Separation than Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, and like a sexy, vicious time for all involved. There’s some nasty business in the back of a butcher’s shop and some equally brutal, very British exchanging of looks and pointed questions over dinner.
Directed by veteran and McKellen fave Bill Condon, it’s in theaters in November. We’re going to watch the shit out of it.
