Well this is a nice surprise – earlier today Warner Bros dropped the first trailer for its upcoming crime thriller The Accountant, and it’s looking like it might be kind of awesome. The film stars newly-minted Batman Ben Affleck as Christian Wolff, a math savant and possible sociopath whose small-town CPA practice is actually a front for his real job – freelance accountant for some of the world’s most dangerous criminal organizations. With the Treasury Department starting to close in on him, he takes on a legitimate client – an accounting clerk at a state-of-the-art robotics company who has discovered a discrepancy involving millions of dollars. As the books get uncooked, the body count starts to rise. Sold, Warner Bros, sold. See for yourself in the trailer above.
