The latest look at Monuments Men, the World War II thriller co-written, directed and starring George Clooney, showcases more of the crew tasked with recovering fine art plundered by the Nazis.
The trailer features narration describing Bill Murray as an architect, John Goodman as a sculptor and Jean Dujardin as director of design who join up with a platoon led by Matt Damon and Clooney.
STORY: George Clooney to Direct, Star in WWII Drama
The clip balances between lighthearted quips between the leads and a based-on-a-true-story narrative.
“They tell us, ‘who cares about art,'” narrates Clooney. “But they’re wrong, it is the exact reason that we’re fighting — for culture, for way of life.”
The project was adapted from the book The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History by Robert M. Edsel and Bret Witter.
The film is set to be released in December.
