'The Deuce' Teaser Revisits Porn Industry Rise With Seedy '70s Flair
Get ready to enter a scandalous, dangerous world.
With "The Deuce" coming this fall, HBO released the latest teaser on Sunday. The preview takes viewers to 1970s New York, where the porn industry is on the rise. While the atmosphere is one of possibility for some people -- such as twin brothers Vincent and Frankie Martino (both played by James Franco), who become entangled with the mob, and Eileen "Candy" Merrell (Maggie Gyllenhaal), a sex worker looking for a better path -- the risk seems as abundant as the series' mustaches.
All of the characters' lives look complicated and that only seems to become more true, based on what we've seen so far. The teaser shows some serious danger, from guns being pulled to people behind bars. Watch below.
The cast of "The Deuce" also includes Margarita Levieva, Emily Meade, and Lawrence Gilliard Jr., among others. The show comes from "The Wire" creator David Simon along with George Pelecanos, who also served as a writer on the hit series.
Look for "The Deuce" on HBO starting Sept. 10.
