Ahead of the US release date of 23rd September comes the trailer for Puncture, a legal thriller starring Chris Evans.

The film has popped up out of nowhere, presumably to cash in on the success of Evans as Captain America. Evans plays an "unconventional lawyer" who happens to be a drug addict, and gets involved in a medical conspiracy.

Mark and Adam Kassen's film also stars Vinessa Shaw and Brett Cullen.

Mike Weiss (Chris Evans) is a talented young Houston lawyer and a functioning drug addict. Paul Danziger (co-director Mark Kassen), his longtime friend and partner, is the straight-laced and responsible yin to Mike’s yang. Their mom-and-pop personal injury law firm is getting by, but things really get interesting when they decide to take on a case involving Vicky (Vinessa Shaw), a local ER nurse, who is pricked by a contaminated needle on the job. As Weiss and Danziger dig deeper into the case, a health care and pharmaceutical conspiracy teeters on exposure and heavyweight attorneys move in on the defense. Out of their league but invested in their own principles, the mounting pressure of the case pushes the two underdog lawyers and their business to the breaking point.
