The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard Trailer

Tags: the goods jeremy piven, the goods live hard sell hard, the goods trailer

Jeremy Piven is stretching his acting chops these days. In The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard, he plays Ari Gold… I mean Don Ready, a brash, egotistical, self-serving character that we’ve seen time and time again. Here are the highlights:

Don Ready winning over passengers and crew to smoke a cigarette on a passenger jet
Don Ready and crew taking a job to help a struggling car dealership
Assaulting a Japanese co-worker after an encouraging and up-lifting Pearl Harbor speech
The same Japanese man having a stolen bank bag blow blue liquid dye in his face (see pics)

Hey, it could be good. I like Used Cars and Will Ferrell produced it. Trailer, pics and synopsis after the jump.

Synopsis:

Who is Don Ready? Salesman? Lover? Song Stylist? Semi-professional dolphin trainer? Ready is all of the above — except for a dolphin trainer. When he’s asked to help save an ailing local car dealership from bankruptcy, Ready and his ragtag crew descend on the town of Temecula like a pack of coyotes on a basket full of burgers. Selling, drinking, selling and going to strip clubs is their stock and trade. And they do it well. What Don doesn’t expect is to fall in love and find his soul (cue heartfelt piano). ‘The Goods: Live Hard Sell Hard’ stars Emmy award-winning actor Jeremy Piven (‘The Kingdom,’ ‘Entourage’) and Ving Rhames (‘I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry,’ ‘Mission: Impossible III’). The film is the first production from Will Ferrell and Adam McKay’s Gary Sanchez Productions, directed by Neal Brennan, co-creator of the hugely successful Comedy Central hit, ‘Chappelle’s Show.
