Ben Affleck goes gangsta in Leonardo DiCaprio produced film ‘Live By Night’

Ben Affleck trades bat ears for fashionable hats in the first trailer of "Live By Night", a 1920s throwback movie about mobsters during the prohibition.

The movie, produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, tells the tale of Joe Coughlin (Affleck), an ambitious man who lands smack in the middle of a crossfire between criminals and more criminals.

Affleck is also directing the film and its cast, which features Elle Fanning, Brendan Gleeson,  Chris Messina, Sienna Miller, Zoe Saldana, and Chris Cooper. 

“Live By Night” is slated for release in the Philippines in 2017, and will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company. — AT, GMA News
