The closer it gets, the better it looks. Here’s the R-rated trailer for Lawless— the John Hillcoat-directed Prohibition-Era saga written by Nick Cave and based on Matt Bondurant’s The Wettest County In The World. Tom Hardy, Shia LaBeouf and Jason Clarke are bootlegging brothers. Guy Pearce plays a badass lawman and Jessica Chastain, Mia Wasikowska, Noah Taylor and Dane DeHaan round out the cast. The Weinstein Company release opens August 29th
