Paramount officially announced the Christmas Day release date for Martin Scorsese The Wolf of Wall Street and now they’re celebrating with a new trailer. “Marty’s work is fantastic,” said Paramount chairman Brad Grey. “He’s continued to work on it but now it’s officially going to be ready for Christmas Day and I’m delighted.”
Reports say the film will run around two hours and 45 minutes long, cut down from a reported 180+ original cut. Based on Jordan Belfort’s tell-all autobiography, the film centers on Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio), a Long Island penny stockbroker who served 20 months in prison for refusing to cooperate in a massive 1990s securities fraud case that involved widespread corruption on Wall Street and in the corporate banking world, including mob infiltration.
Additional members of the cast include Matthew McConaughey, Jonah Hill, Jean Dujardin, Rob Reiner, Kyle Chandler, Margot Robbie, Jon Bernthal, Cristin Milioti, P.J. Byrne and Ethan Suplee.
