The first teaser trailer has been released for Greg Mottola's HBO film, Clear History, which stars an unrecognizable Larry David as "Nathan, a hipster marketing exec who sells all his shares at a start-up over a fight with his boss (Jon Hamm), only to miss out on billions when the company’s new product—an electric car—becomes a smashing success."  The movie was largely improvised, and also stars Bill Hader, Kate Hudson, Eva Mendes, Danny McBride, Michael Keaton, Phillip Michael Hall, JB Smoove, and Amy Ryan.  Mottola tells EW the movie picks up ten years after Nathan's disastrous mistake, and he has changed his name and gone incognito.  The Superbad director adds that the character is loosely based off an employee mentioned in Walter Isaacson’s Steve Jobs biography.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer and first image.  Clear History premieres on HBO in August.
