Sandra Bullock and Billy Bob Thornton star in OUR BRAND IS CRISIS_ by [Christopher Rosen / Entertainment Weekly](https://time.com/author/entertainment-weekly/) ## Christopher Rosen / Entertainment Weekly Sep 8, 2015 7:31 PM UTC Sandra Bullock and Billy Bob Thornton star in OUR BRAND IS CRISIS by [Christopher Rosen / Entertainment Weekly](https://time.com/author/entertainment-weekly/) ## Christopher Rosen / Entertainment Weekly Sep 8, 2015 7:31 PM UTC If you fight with monsters for too long, you become a monster. Such is the dilemma faced by Sandra Bullock in _Our Brand Is Crisis_, which finds the Oscar-winning actress playing Jane Bodine, a formerly world-class campaign strategist who gets a shot at redemption when she’s called on to help sway a presidential race in South America. “About two and a half years ago I put out feelers saying, ‘I’m not reading anything I’m excited about,’” [Bullock told EW of the film](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/08/12/sandra-bullock-our-brand-crisis-first-look), which was produced by George Clooney and Grant Heslov. “ ‘Are there any male roles out there that \[the filmmakers\] don’t mind switching to female?’” _Our Brand Is Crisis_ fit the bill: The part was originally set for Clooney, but switched for Bullock when she showed interest in Peter Straughan’s script. Also starring Billy Bob Thornton, Anthony Mackie, Scott McNairy, Zoe Kazan, Ann Dowd, and Joaquim de Almeida, and directed by David Gordon Green, _Our Brand Is Crisis_ arrives in theaters on Oct. 30 and will premiere at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival. Featuring music accompaniment from Credence Clearwater Revival (“Fortunate Son”) and Ten Years After (“I’d Love to Change the World”), the film’s pretty excellent first trailer is above. _This_ [_article_](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/09/08/our-brand-crisis-trailer-sandra-bullock) _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://www.ew.com/)_._ ## Transcript [00:00] She is the brightest and [00:04] most innovative. She is the best campaign strategist in [00:07] the game. Responsible for the greatest political upset [00:10] in history. You're a fighter, Jane. And I'm giving you [00:13] another shot at the title. It's a presidential campaign in [00:17] South America. Fragile democracy, economy in real [00:19] trouble. Our candidate is considered arrogant and out [00:22] of touch with people's lives. How far are you behind? [00:25] Twenty eight points. [ LAUGH ] The opposition as cited [00:29] their own American Pat Candy. Jane [00:33] Bodine. [00:35] Pat. [00:37] So what are you doing here I thought you retired or [00:37] gave up or something. What happened to your hair? I [00:38] see you've still got a great sense of humor. How many [00:39] times have you gone against Candy? Three or four [00:41] times. How many times has he beat you? Three or four [00:43] times. [ MUSIC ] If you want to win, we are going to [00:48] have to take risks. You're my tracker. Every event that [00:50] Rivera attends, every speech you tape, if security [00:53] beats you up, you are doing your job right. Get that [00:56] beat on tape. Wake up, this is war, there is only wrong [01:00] in this and that is losing. Maybe we [01:05] should check and see if anyone understood that. [01:10] [ FOREIGN ] [ FOREIGN ] He should feel something [01:13] during the interview, like he could have some tears. [01:15] Could you just turn towards the camera? [ SOUND ] [01:16] Whoa, whoa, look at him. This is it. Yes. Oh, my. Five [01:19] point goal. [ SOUND ] [ MUSIC ] If I lose [01:30] to Candy now, I swear to God. This actually kinda [01:33] matters, Jane. This country couldn't go under. We're [01:36] talking about people's lives. [ MUSIC ] You like [01:41] to pretend you're not one of us. If you fight with [01:41] monsters too long, you become a monster. [ MUSIC ] [01:41] Eddie, this is your neighborhood? This is [01:45] where you [01:52] live? People gonna get hurt, what are you [01:58] gonna do? We are trying to save people's lives. These [02:12] are the stakes and I'm not gonna stand by and watch [02:12] as. As this nation falls apart, this is no longer an [02:12] election. This is a crisis. We're going to shoot the [02:12] commercial [ FOREIGN ] Llamas. [ SOUND ] This animal [02:14] will lead us to prosperity. [ SOUND ] Oh. No, no, no. [02:17] Marco! Marco! He killed himself [02:21] rather than be in one of our commercials.
