Pic is violent, somber and menacing – just like the film

Brad Pitt and director Andrew Dominik introduced their latest collaboration, “Killing Them Softly,” at the Cannes Film Festival in spring, thus winning over the majority of critics in the audience. Promotion for the film's wide release has officially kicked off just now.

TWC has just released a brand new teaser poster for the gangster film, which, though not as impacting as the first one, still delivers a serious punch.

It's actually a still from the film, of Pitt brandishing a gun whilst looking his meanest possible, against an all-black backdrop.

If that doesn't go with the overall somber, violent and menacing feel of the whole movie, we don't know what will.

“Killing Them Softly” will be out on October 19. An official trailer is here.
