The studio is calling this the first trailer. However, scroll down, and you’ll see the MGM trailer, which is milder than the trailer here. Josh O’Connor can play such a good scumbag.

He must face off against the washed-up Patrick, played by O’Connor of The Crown, his former best friend and Tashi’s former boyfriend.
