Watch Viola Davis in Won’t Back Down trailer

Twentieth Century Fox has debuted the trailer for Won’t Back Down, which stars Viola Davis, Maggie Gyllenhaal,  Oscar Isaac, Holly Hunter, Rosie Perez, Lance Reddick, Dante Brown,  and Emily Alyn Lind.

Directed by Daniel Barnz, “Won’t Back Down” is an original story about two strong women, both mothers, who channel their frustration into action and join forces to transform an inner-city school. They want to make a difference in education and the lives of their children.

Hunter will play the head of the teacher’s union. Oscar Isaac will play Michael Raymond, a sexy, ukulele-playing teacher who helps inspire, challenge and romance Gyllenhaal’s character throughout the film. Perez will play a former teacher who is now the poised-yet-frank head of the school board, while Reddick will play Davis’ husband who’s also a teacher.

The film opens on September 28, 2012.
