"Bruce!" While today might be a fine spring Thursday, if you're at work, it's probably best to save this until you get home (unless you work in movies). Our friends at HeyUGuys in the UK have come across a trailer for Filth, the new adaptation of an Irvine Welsh novel, directed by Jon S. Baird of Green Street Hooligans. The plot involves a bigoted and corrupt policeman played by a wild James McAvoy who is neck deep in a pile of his own filth, while in line for a promotion and enlisted to solve a brutal murder. There's lots of sex, language and general filth of all kinds that makes this look like one crazy ride. Jim Broadbent also stars.

Here's the first NSFW UK trailer for Jon S. Baird's Filth, found via HeyUGuys:

Filth is a crime comedy written & directed by up-and-comer Jon S. Baird (Green Street Hooligans, Cass) based on the novel by Irvine Welsh (of Trainspotting). The plot involves a bipolar bigoted junkie cop, who manipulates and hallucinates his way through the festive season in a bid to secure promotion and win back his wife and daughter. James McAvoy, Jamie Bell, Kate Dickie, Eddie Marsan and Imogen Poots all star. Clint Mansell, who recently finished work on Park Chan-wook's Stoker, composed the score for the film. Filth will be released this September in the UK, but still doesn't have a US release date yet. Anyone curious?

Above we've added the hilariously perfect official UK poster for Filth, also revealed along with this trailer.
