Open Road Films has released a new viral marketing video for Dan Gilroy's upcoming thriller Nightcrawler. Jake Gyllenhaal stars as reporter Louis Bloom in what seems to be a video resume, as he reaches out to a number of unseen prospective employers.

It isn't known if this video features any actual footage from the movie itself, but it does give us some new insight into Louis Bloom's unique outlook on finding a job. The thriller opens in theaters October 17, so we should be seeing the first trailer sometime in the near future. While we wait for that new footage to arrive, take a look at this viral video below.

The film centers Louis Bloom, a driven young man (Jake Gyllenhaal) who stumbles upon the underground world of L.A. freelance crime journalism. Nightcrawler co-stars Rene Russo, Bill Paxton, Ann Cusack, Eric Lange, Kevin Rahm, Kathleen York, Anne McDaniels and Riz Ahmed.
