'Nice Guys' Ryan Gosling, Russell Crowe Movie Release Date, Trailer Spoilers: Shane Black's Film Hits Theaters 2016

Director Shane Black and producer Joel Silver have teamed up for a new movie entitled The Nice Guys, which has Hollywood superstars Ryan Gosling and Russell Crow on board to star. The film has been off the radar for a little bit, but this week we learned that Warner Bros. has released an official release date for this highly anticipated project. We have high hopes for The Nice Guys, which hits theaters on June 17, 2016.

Black and Silver last teamed up for the hilarious take on film noir, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, which starred Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer. Fans of this movie will probably love the plot synopsis of The Nice Guys, provided right here:

In smoggy 1970s Los Angeles, Jackson Healy (muscle-for-hire, recovering alcoholic) and Holland March (private eye, practicing alcoholic) are brought together by the suicide of a fading porn star. Problem is, the dead girl's aunt is convinced she saw her niece alive and well, AFTER the highly publicized incident. March needs money, takes the case-and within days, it's blossomed into a far-reaching murder conspiracy, bizarrely rooted in smog and the U.S. auto industry.

Gosling is set to portray Holland March with Russell taking on the role of Jackson Healy. This pairing is sure to put audiences in seat in the summer of 2016, wouldn't you say?

"Ever since we did Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, I've been eager to work with Shane again, and with this film we made it happen," Silver said in the official press release from Warner Bros. "It's a terrific script written in Shane's great cinematic voice. With Russell and Ryan on board, I know we're in for another wild ride."
