It’s a hard knock life for Quvenzhane Wallis. The wunderkind stars in the upcoming adaptation of the classic story of Annie as the famed little orphan girl.

The new clip opens with Foxx as Benjamin Stacks, a modern-day spin on the character of Daddy Warbucks. He is shown as a wealthy New York City man, who flies around the city in a helicopter, stays in an ostentatious home, and is planning a political run.
