THE ICEMAN (2011) Movie Poster, Test Scene: Michael Shannon

The Iceman Movie Poster and The Iceman Test Scene has premiered. Ariel Vromen‘s The Iceman (2011) movie poster, test scene stars Michael Shannon, Benicio del Toro, James Franco, Elias Koteas, and Weronika Rosati. The Ice Man‘s plot synopsis: “the electrifying true story of Richard Kuklinski (Shannon), a notorious mob contract killer and loving family man. He earned his nickname by freezing the bodies of his victims, disguising the time of death, and throwing police off-track. He was a man who used his tendencies toward violence and detachment from consequence to create an idyllic family life. His family and neighbors believed he was an average businessman, having no idea about his deadly alternate life. Kuklinski killed over one hundred people during his life. He never felt remorse for anything he had done, except hurting his family. Del Toro co-stars as Kuklinski’s employer, the notorious mobster Roy Demeo, and Franco plays his mentor assassin known as Mr. Softee.”

The test scene for The Iceman sells the film. Micahel Shannon is intense as Richard Kuklinski, the same intensity he brings to his character on HBO’s Boardwalk Empire when the scene calls for it.
