The official trailer of Pain Hustlers, the upcoming film starring actors Emily Blunt and Chris Evans in the lead roles, was released by the makers on social media. The film will premiere on Netflix on October 27.

Emily portrays struggling mother Liza who has to support her daughter and life, by finding new means of income. As she gets a job at a pharmaceutical start-up that is much more than it propheses it to be, Liza is already far into a racket.

The official synopsis of the film reads, “A woman struggling to raise her daughter becomes involved in a dangerous racketeering scheme after taking a job at a failing pharmaceutical start-up.”  The film is inspired by the book Pain Hustlers: Crime and Punishment at an Opioid Startup.

The film is helmed by David Yates, who is mostly known for directing Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films. “Talking about the transition to films on reality, the director said to EW, "So the beauty of 'Pain Hustlers' for me was to come back to those roots, to come back to where the most exciting thing in a scene is an authentic moment between two actors rather than a big special effect. It was a welcome return to doing things that I'd done a lot of previous to entering the ‘Harry Potter’ world."

Others part of the cast include Catherine O'Hara, Andy Garcia, Chloe Coleman, Jay Duplass, and Brian d'Arcy James.
