First Official ‘Public Enemies’ Pics

These first, two pics from Michael Mann’s new film ‘Public Enemies’ were made available from Empire Magazine. Â  The film follows FBI agent Melvin Purvis (Christian Bale) and his attempt to bring down such infamous criminals as John Dillinger (Johnny Depp), Pretty Boy Floyd (Channing Tatum), and Baby Face Nelson (Stephen Graham). Â  The film also stars Marion Cotillard, Giovanni Ribisi, Stephen Dorff, Billy Crudup, and David Wenham.

The last time we had a really good, 1930s, gangster film was 2002’s ‘Road to Perdition’. Â  It will be interesting to see what Mann has to offer in this genre. Â  It will also be interesting to see Bale and Depp share the screen together. Â  Theaters may just implode from all the awesomeness going on.

‘Public Enemies’ comes out on July 1, 2009.
