Jennifer Lopez eats the rich in the first trailer for Lorene Scafaria’s ensemble drama Hustlers.
Well, sort of. The trailer finds Lopez in the shoes of a jaded former strip club employee banding together with other dancers—the first-billed Constance Wu, Lili Reinhart and Keke Palmer—to scam, outsmart and bleed their Wall Street clients dry: that is, wine and dine them until they hand over their black Amex cards or, well, drop dead.
Taken under Lopez’s wing, Wu’s character seems to be the focal point and moral center of the film. But exactly how moral, we don’t know: Champagne gets popped, hundred-dollar bills descend from the heavens, suited businessmen collapse through glass tables and, unsurprisingly, things quickly spiral out of control.
