Coinciding with its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, Neon has shared a new trailer for Takashi Miike’s (Audition) new crime thriller Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo.
Following in the footsteps of Abel Ferrara’s Bad Lieutenant starring Harvey Keitel and Werner Herzog’s Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans with Nicolas Cage, the film centres on a gambling-addicted Tokyo detective and an FBI agent as they find themselves tangled in the criminal underworld in their search for a missing US politician’s daughter.
Shun Oguri (Godzilla vs. Kong) and Lily James (Pam & Tommy) lead a cast that includes Shotaro Mamiya, Liv Morgan, Jun Kunimura, and Hiroshi Tachi. Watch the trailer below…
A disgraced Tokyo detective spirals into a world of corruption, addiction, and violence as he becomes entangled in a twister investigation involving a vengeful ex-Yakuza, an enigmatic FBI agent, and a missing daughter of a powerful American family.
