"Which side are you on?" Saban Films has unveiled a new official US trailer for heist comedy The King of Thieves , the latest film from British filmmaker James Marsh ( The Theory of Everything ,
Man on Wire , Project Nim ). We featured two other UK trailers for this through the year, but it's finally getting released in the US in late January. The film tells the "incredible true story" of the Hatton Garden diamond robbery in London, which took place in April of 2015. A group of retired thieves decide to pull off one of the biggest heists ever in London robbing safe deposit boxes - and they got away with roughly £200 million, but were eventually caught. Michael Caine leads the fun cast, with Jim Broadbent , Tom Courtenay , Charlie Cox, Michael Gambon , and
Ray Winstone . I've been waiting to see this all year! Glad it'll be out soon.
Plot:
A crew of retired crooks pull off a major heist in London's jewelry district. The darkly funny, incredible true story of the Hatton Garden robbery, the most daring heist in British criminal history. The King of Thieves is directed by British filmmaker James Marsh, director of the films Wisconsin Death Trip, The King , Shadow Dancer , The Theory of Everything, and
The Mercy, plus the docs The Team , Man on Wire , and Project Nim previously. The screenplay is written by Joe Penhall, based on the magazine article by Mark Seal. The film has yet to premiere at any film festivals or otherwise. Saban Films will finally release Marsh's The King of Thieves in select US theaters + on VOD starting January 25th, 2019 coming up this month.
Synopsis:
A famous thief in his younger years, 77 year old widower Brian Reader pulls together a band of misfit criminals to plot an unprecedented burglary at the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit. The thieves, all in their 60s and 70s except for one, employ their old-school thieving skills to plan the heist over the Easter holiday weekend. Posing as servicemen, they enter the deposit, neutralise the alarms, and proceed to drill a hole into the wall of the safe. Two days later, they manage to escape with allegedly over £200 million worth of stolen jewels and money. When police are called to the scene and the investigation starts, the cracks between the misfit gang members begin to show as they row over how to share the goods and become increasingly distrustful of each other.
Meanwhile, the crime has become public knowledge, and a frenzy of speculations begin. As details about the crime come to light, both the British public and the media are captivated, and the investigation is followed with bated breath around the world.

Jim Broadbent as Terry Perkins
Tom Courtenay as John Kenny Collins
