Dimension Films has released the official trailer of Soul Men starring Samuel L. Jackson and the late Bernie Mac with a special guest appearance by Isaac Hayes, who died one day after Mac. Soul Men tells the tale of two estranged soul singers, played by Sam and Bernie, who are also surviving members of a popular 70s band called The Real Deal. The two bickering bandmates reunite before taking a road trip to the Apollo Theater in Harlem to perform a musical tribute to their recently deceased band leader. Although Bernie's not here to see his movie, Jackson says it would have cemented Bernie's reputation as a bona fide film star. "He's awesome in the film. I saw it a week before he passed. I was talking to his manager, who said he never got a chance to see it. That's a tragedy because it's one of the best things he's ever done. It's the Bernie we know and it's the Bernie we love."Jackson warns Mac Man fans that the funnyman looks a little ill in the movie: "Bernie was thinner because he'd been sick off and on for a while, so he wasn't that (American) football-looking guy that I used to know, but his performance was phenomenal. He would've been so proud."
