I didn’t know much –actually, anything — about Will Smith’s next film, Hancock , until someone sent me a link to the film’s trailer on JoBlo.com. And I still don’t know what it looks like, because I can’t get the player to work for me. Moviefone has a description of the film:

A hard-drinking superhero with a notorious reputation as a womanizer enters into an unlikely affair with a small-town housewife in director Peter Berg’s unconventional look at the private life of a superhuman crime-fighter. Will Smith stars as the embittered do-gooder whose lifestyle is more akin to a rock star than a role model, and who has grown as disillusioned with his once-admiring public as they have of him.

The film is due in July. I’ve put the movie code up after the jump … maybe you’ll have better luck.

EDIT: When all else fails, try YouTube (thanks Sean).

With Smith’s involvement, it seems like this would be a natural trailer to have in front of I Am Legend right about now, and maybe some theaters are doing that. The one where I saw Legend didn’t, but then again, they didn’t have the Dark Knight trailer in front of it, either. All I got was Rambo and Cloverfield. Crappy Cinelux.
