New Trailer for 'Black or White' starring Kevin Costner and Octavia Spencer

Kevin Costner's been attempting to make a comeback over the last couple of years, and while he's been busier than ever most of his films have been duds. So perhaps a good way to rebound is a collaboration with his The Upside of Anger director, Mike Binder, for the racially-charged drama Black or White (formerly Black AND White), and a new trailer arrives weeks before it opens in theaters.

Co-starring Octavia Spencer, Gillian Jacobs, Anthony Mackie, Andre Holland, Jennifer Ehle, and newcomer Jillian Estel, the film centers on the custody battle between a white grandfather and an African-American grandmother over their beloved granddaughter. This one appears to be a well-intentioned crowd pleaser that tackles the race issue in the broadest possible way. Nothing wrong with that, but some of the early talk about it as an awards film (we received screeners for it, surprisingly) seems to be misplaced.

Black or White opens next year on January 30th.
