‘Gangster Squad’ First-Look Pics Busts Through Your Computer Screen Like a Tommy Gun Through a Rat Informant

Prepare to immerse yourself in the world of crime in Gangster Squad with the likes of Nick Nolte, Ryan Gosling, and Josh Brolin (who you probably saw last in MIB 3). Los Angeles was a raging hub for gangsters back in the forties and fifties, but that's all about to change if Nolte and his crew had their way.

Sean Penn steps in to play mob king of all mobsters, Mickey Cohen (he's a real person, by the way), and he proves to be a worthy adversary to the LAPD detectives.

The movie doesn't hit until January 11th of next year, but a bevy of behind-the-scenes images recently debuted on W Magazine to tease everyone about its release. Director Ruben Fleischer sheds some light on each of the photos with his commentary.

Check out the gallery to get a good look at Gangster Squad, which includes a couple of shots showing off Emma Stone in all her gingertastic glory.

Looking Forward To ‘Lawless’? Here Are 5 Other Period Gangster Movies That Will Make You Long For A Time Machine

We Don't Lay Down For Nobody.

Weren't we supposed to have time machines by now!? It seemed like Dr. Emmet Brown had struck gold back in 1985 with his patented DeLorean that could fly through time!?

What's with all the time-travelling questions and exclamation marks all of a sudden? Well, you see Lawless just looks so immense that it's given me a hankering to experience 1920s life as a gangster. I know I'll probably be out of my depth but the guns, broads and money make it look so appealing! Who cares about the depression!?  Read More » »

Well with Marvel Studios The Avengers making so much money it would make some countries weep, Warner Bros are hoping that they can pull together their DC heroes for a Justice League film that will no doubt rival the efforts of Thor, Captain America, Iron Man and The Hulk. And I tell you what, it probably would you know.

Gangster Squad
Watch Video

This summer promises to be a pretty cool season for movies.

With The Dark Knight Rises, Prometheus and The Amazing Spider-Man being released unto the world over the coming days, weeks and months it seems like the crown for the most anticipated cinema treat of 2012 would be taken by one of these colossal celluloid adventures.

Well, Ruben Fleischer's Gangster Squad is definitely a late contendor for this award.

Starring Sean Penn, Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling, Anthony Mackie, Emma Stone and a resurgent Nick Nolte, also Giovanni Ribisi but the less said about that the better, Gangster Squad will tell the true tale of Micky Cohen, an infamous East Coast gangster who turned up in LA in the 1940s and build a criminal empire.
