TRAILER: Deepwater Horizon

The A.V. Club recaps:



The Deepwater Horizon oil spill of 2010 was the largest accidental marine oil spill in the history of the petroleum industry, and an ecological disaster. BP was ultimately held responsible by the U.S. justice system (well, as much as a huge corporation can be these days) but the first trailer for Peter Berg’s Deepwater Horizon offers up a different culprit—extinct dinosaurs. Mark Wahlberg, who teamed up with Berg for Lone Survivor and the forthcoming Patriots Day, stars as Mike Williams, an electrician on the Deepwater Horizon oil rig. He’s introduced with much pride by his daughter as an “explorer like Dora,” but presumably with a much larger carbon footprint.
