October 2, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its release next month, a new trailer has arrived online for Bill Condon’s upcoming adaptation of Nicholas Searle’s thriller novel The Good Liar which stars Ian McKellen as a con artist who finds he’s met his match when he attempts to swindle a well-to-do widow (Helen Mirren); watch it here…

Career con artist Roy Courtnay (McKellen) can hardly believe his luck when he meets well-to-do widow Betty McLeish (Mirren) online. As Betty opens her home and life to him, Roy is surprised to find himself caring about her, turning what should be a cut-and-dry swindle into the most treacherous tightrope walk of his life.

The Good Liar is set for release on November 8th.
