The first trailer for Steven Soderbergh`s upcoming Netflix film `The Laundromat` has arrived. Like his previous film `The Informant!`, this film is an out-and-out look at a real-life event.

Soderbergh introduces us to Jürgen Mossack and Ramón Fonseca (Gary Oldman and Antonio Banderas), a bunch of seedy lawyers who funnel the one percenter wealth all around the world. In their games, the everyday man gets hurt but they remain non-plussed.

Ellen Martin (Meryl Streep) sets out to seek justice in a system where odds are stacked against her. Nonetheless, she`s determined and probes further into this horrendous act of dishonesty. She gets back at the perpetrators by uncovering a trail of corruption, finally bringing attention to a scam encompassing several countries.

`The Laundromat` is directed by Steven Soderbergh and written by his frequent scribe Scott Z. Burns. It stars Oscar winners Meryl Streep and Gary Oldman along with Antonio Banderas, David Schwimmer, Melissa Rauch, Sharon Stone, James Cromwell, Matthias Schoenaerts, Jeffrey Wright, Will Forte, and Alex Pettyfer.

`The Laundromat` follows Ellen Martin (Streep), whose dream vacation takes a wrong turn and leads her down a rabbit hole of shady dealings that can all be traced to one Panama City law firm, run by seductive partners Jürgen Mossack (Oldman) and Ramón Fonseca (Banderas). She soon learns that her minor predicament is only a drop in the bucket of millions of files linking an off-shore tax scheme to the world`s richest and most powerful political leaders.

`The Laundromat` will have its world premiere in the Venice Film Festival and will be released for theatres on September 27, 2019. It will be available on Netflix on streaming on October 18, 2019.
