The Devil's Double Trailer
Based on a gripping, unbelievable true story of money, power and opulent decadence, Lionsgate's The Devil's Double takes a white-knuckle ride deep into the lawless playground of excess and violence known as Bagdad, 1987. Summoned from the frontline to Saddam Hussein's palace, Iraqi army lieutenant Latif Yahia (Dominic Cooper) is thrust into the highest echelons of the royal family when he's ordered to become the 'fiday' - or body double - to Saddam's son, the notorious Black Prince Uday Hussein (also Dominic Cooper), a reckless, sadistic party-boy with a rabid hunger for sex and brutality. With his and his family's lives at stake, Latif must surrender his former self forever as he learns to walk, talk and act like Uday. But nothing could have prepared him for the horror of the Black Prince's psychotic, drug-addled life of fast cars, easy women and impulsive violence. With one wrong move costing him his life, Latif forges an intimate bond with Sarrab (Ludivine Sagnier), Uday's seductive mistress who's haunted by her own secrets. But as war looms with Kuwait and Uday's depraved gangster regime threatens to destroy them all, Latif realizes that escape from the devil's den will only come at the highest possible cost.
The Devil's Double was released July 29th, 2011 and stars Dominic Cooper, Ludivine Sagnier, Raad Rawi, Mem Ferda, Dar Salim, Khalid Laith, Pano Masti, Nasser Memarzia. The film is directed by Lee Tamahori.

Eh.... so we're gonna watch a story of a piece of sh*t being a piece of sh*t in a glamorized movie that Hollywood will obviously spin? I dunno. Seems like a knock off of Scarface, only the guy really existed and was worse then anything this movie will attempt to show.

Crazy. I hope this is at least a LITTLE historicly accurate.
