The Incredible Burt Wonderstone First TV Spot & New Posters

Is it a kind of magic or is it you having a good laugh at the latest posters and first TV Spot as we approach the final month of marketing for  hilarious comedy The Incredible Burt Wonderstone  starring Steve Carell, Jim Carrey, Steve Buscemi, Alan Arkin and Olivia Wilde.

Steve Carrell plays eponymous Burt Wonderstone whose longtime Las Vegas act is suffering and a rift with long time partner and friend Anton Marvelton, played by Steve Buscemi isn’t help things much either. As Burt’s career is on a downward spiral a ‘Cris Angel’ style street illusionist Steve Gray (Jim Carrey) appears to be raining on his parade, stealing his limelight. Not determined to just saddle up and ride into the sunset , Burt Wonderstone seeks the aide of his boyhood hero Rance Holloway (Allan Arkin) to help him to relight the fire and recapture the old magic.

The Incredible Burt Wonderstone has been getting a bit of a bashing recently by some critics of been too mediocre however the film’s first tv spot might mend some of wounds as this ties in nicely with recent UK trailer the laugh as well as a sneak peek at the rivalry between Burt Wonderstone and Steve Gray. With the evidence of that UK trailer Alan Arkin looks like he may have the ‘scene stealer’ lines like he did in Argo and if that’s the case you can sign me up to watch this one.

The Incredible Burt Wonderstone will be released on the same day as USA on 15th March.The film also stars  Olivia Wilde, James Gandolfini, and Jay Mohr  with the film directed by Don Scardino.

Synopsis:

Superstar magicians Burt Wonderstone (Steve Carell) and Anton Marvelton (Steve Buscemi) have ruled the Las Vegas strip for years, raking in millions with illusions as big as Burt’s growing ego. Facing cutthroat competition from guerrilla street magician Steve Gray (Jim Carrey), whose cult following surges with each outrageous stunt, their partnership begins to show cracks as audience numbers dwindle. But there’s still a chance Burt and Anton can save the act—both onstage and off—if Burt can get back in touch with what made him love magic in the first place.
