Limitless, the new action thriller starring Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro has gotten itself a second poster. The best thing that can be said about it is that it’s better than the first, and if you are into Bradley Cooper then you’ll definitely like it.
The film centres on a struggling writer, played by Cooper, who takes a special drug that allows him to utilize his entire mental capacity. De Niro is a business man, who would like to use Copper’s now limitless potential for his own personal gain.
The Illusionist director Neil Burger is the man behind the camera working of a script by Pay It Forward writer Leslie Dixon, which is in turn based on the book by Alan Glynn. Joining De Niro and Copper are Abbie Cornish and Anna Friel.
Limitless will be released in Ireland March 18th.
Synopsis:
Eddie Morra (Bradley Cooper) is an unemployed writer whose girlfriend Lindy (Abbie Cornish) breaks up with him.

He is able to recall everything he has read, heard or seen, and he uses the knowledge to become successful in the financial world.
