Movie Preview: Wanted
Published 10/31/2007 by BuzzSugar at BuzzSugar -- Entertainment hourly.
... from the James McAvoy/Angelina Jolie/Morgan Freeman action movie Wanted , and now there's a full-length trailer to go along with them. If nothing else, this movie is impeccably cast.

James McAvoy looks good (as usual) playing the inexperienced guy who becomes an unlikely assassin, following in his father's footsteps. The trailer is visually awesome, and I like that Freeman provides dramatic voiceover as we watch Wesley (McAvoy) get schooled in the ways of this "fraternity of assassins." Wanted opens March 28, 2008. To check out the trailer, ...
