Molly’s Game Featurette Takes You Into Its High Stakes World

STXfilms has released a new featurette for Molly’s Game, the upcoming directorial debut of screenwriter Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network, The West Wing), which stars Jessica Chastain, Idris Elba, Kevin Costner, Michael Cera, Jeremy Strong, Chris O’Dowd, and Bill Camp. Check out the Molly’s Game featurette below!

Molly’s Game is based on the true story of Molly Bloom, an Olympic-class skier who ran the world’s most exclusive high-stakes poker game for a decade before being arrested in the middle of the night by 17 FBI agents wielding automatic weapons. Her players included Hollywood royalty, sports stars, business titans and finally, unbeknownst to her, the Russian mob. Her only ally was her criminal defense lawyer Charlie Jaffey, who learned that there was much more to Molly than the tabloids led us to believe.

The film will get a limited release on Christmas Day and a wide release on January 5.
