Max Payne trailer and release date

Max Payne was a cinematic game, and now that game has been turned into a full blown movie. If you’ve ever played any of the Max Payne games they were defined to two things, the then innovative gameplay and the very cool film noir style. The movie looks to have held onto the style and it looks remarkably similar to the game with dark visuals and many scenes pull straight from the game.

Mark Whalburg is taking the lead role as Max Payne and while unexpected is probably a good choice. With a supporting cast of Beau Bridges, Chris O’ Donnell and Nelly Furtado, yes you heard that right Nelly Furtado. I’m definitely interested to see how that pans out, she’s a talented singer/musician lets see if her acting is up to the same skill level.

Max Payne was wrapped back at the start of May this year and is due to be released in October 2008. You can take a look at the stylish trailer over at the official Max Payne site.
