Watch the 'MacGruber' Restricted Trailer
The 'MacGruber' movie may be nearly two months away from hitting the big screen -- it arrives in theaters May 21 -- but that hasn't prevented a full-out marketing blitz. There's a new NSFW trailer of the 'SNL' adaption, which you can watch after the jump. We get to see MacGruber (Will Forte) putting together his team to fight the so-called world's most dangerous man (Val Kilmer), along with Kristen Wiig as a master of disguise.
If the trailer is any indication, 'MacGruber' is going to be a slapstick festival of double-entendres (if you're looking for subtle, move on). Probably a good excuse to turn your head off for an hour and a half and sit in an air-conditioned room on a hot spring day.
If it has a secret weapon, it will be Kilmer, who has fine comic timing (remember 'Top Secret?' 'Real Genius?' Even 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang?'). Hopefully, he'll get to let loose somewhere in the script. Oh, and we'll let you discover his character's name in the trailer. It's "restricted" for a reason.
But the trailer is only the tip of the 'MacGruber' iceberg. There is also an iPhone app (which includes a "bomb defuser" and a "mullet generator"), a Facebook page, a Twitter page, and the official movie page, in addition to the NBC page with videos of the original 'SNL' sketches. Hopefully you won't be sick of 'MacGruber' before it even gets here.
Here's the restricted trailer:
