THE Sun has got its hands on the first trailer from what is sure to be the most outrageous movie of the year - Bruno. And from what we have seen it looks like SACHA BARON COHEN's follow up to Borat is ready to shock.
To see the hilarious clip, watch below:
In the film, which opens on July 10, British comic Cohen plays a gay Austrian TV presenter called Bruno.
The trailer shows Bruno on a talk show with his black adopted baby saying: “I gave him a traditional African name - OJ.”
A shocked Afro-Caribbean member of the audience jumps up and replies: “What?”

Gotta admit the seen where he tells the macho hunter guy "That is such a Samantha thing to say" looks pretty amusing too.
Doh edit: “scene”
Watched it and it has some funny, albeit crude, stuff.
I used to watch the “Ali G” show when it came on HBO. The “Borat” character used to appear on that sometimes. It was mildly funny, but I just don’t like Cohen. The whole smarmy “I’m smarter than you” mocking of people who aren’t in on his little scams - not for me.
This character doesn’t seem as funny at face value as Borat was. Richard Simmons makes a more entertaining flaming gay. But goofing on the whole steal-a-baby-from-Africa celebrity trend is ripe material for somebody with stones.
I just marvel at how these people are so clueless they don’t know they’re being tooled on. There’s a cure for guys like Cohen and its called a swift kick to the gonads. At least in this one he appears to get chased by an angry crowd or two.
Cracked me up, might have to go see this.
I like the scene where he’s in sears and tells the staff,
the truth is I’m gay, then the camera backs out and you can
see he’s wearing a see through top and bright green lame pants...
Agreed. The baby adoption thing is quite smart. Put it on the “maybe see” list. Make it on the “probably see” list if the gay mafia throws a hissy fit...
He struck here twice. I guess we were so much fun in “Borat” he came back for more:

It looks like the typically stupid fare that has developed since the 1960’s.
I would not sit and subject my mind to such nonsense for any more time than it took to watch that clip...and that tried my patience.
I predict he will tease the wrong person some day and end up dead or badly hurt. I’m not wishing it on him. But you can’t be that obnoxious all the time. It’s like running with the lions. They will eventually attack you.
I’ll bet that locksmith part will probably be taken out. The mall cop remark caused me to go into hysterical laughter.
Drat! I had hoped that idiot was dead. He’s about as funny as kidney failure.
A must see. Been a fan ever since Ali G days. Still laugh over the nuclear protestors segment. He made them look like complete idiots.
Pretty much my thoughts as well (though I wish him a long life). He’s far from the genius people make him out to be. It’s incredibly mean-spirited humor. I don’t enjoy laughing at others simply because they’re ignorant or uncultured. It’s cruel.
