Jodie Foster's 'Money Monster' May Make You Hide Your Money in a Mattress

One day after a study revealed that women directors accounted for just nine percent of Hollywood’s top films, Jodie Foster has released a trailer for her upcoming film Money Monster, starring Julia Roberts’ pursed lips and George Clooney’s terrified face.

Joining the wave of financial villain tales in other films like the Brad Pitt and Ryan Gosling-led The Big Short, Foster’s Money Monster follows a regular joe who takes a financial talking head hostage on live television after the pundit’s poor advice led him to lose everything. Naturally, the trailer is stressful and the movie looks like a nail biter… that’s not-so-loosely based on CNBC’s Mad Money with Jim Cramer perhaps?
