There’s a new trailer for Argo, the new film from Ben Affleck as director. Affleck, who also stars, has surprised critics with his previous two directorial efforts, the highly-acclaimed films Gone Baby Gone and The Town. Here, he plays a CIA agent during the Iran hostage crisis who concocts a plan to rescue six Americans stranded in Tehran by posing as a filmmaker. The film co-stars Alan Arkin, Bryan Cranston, and John Goodman, among others.

Argo hits U.S. screens September 14.
