Description:
Sony Pictures has released a second full-length trailer for upcoming action thriller Bullet Train.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Its been a good few months since our last look at David Leitchs upcoming action romp, Bullet Train, but the movie's newest trailer an expletive-laden montage of punches and petrol more than justifies the break.

Based on the novel Maria Beetle (published in English as Bullet Train) by
Ktar Isaka, the new thriller flick follows Brad Pitts quick-witted assassin, Ladybug, as he fights off a group of mercenaries all vying for the same prize aboard the fictional Nippon Speed Line.

The likes of Sandra Bullock, Michael Shannon, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Zazie Beetz, Bad Bunny and many more feature alongside Pitt in the John Wick-esque movie which is now scheduled to release in theaters on August 5 and the Gravity star makes her first appearance in this latest trailer. Check it out below:

The new footage also suggests Bullet Train will be a lighter-hearted
adventure than its first two trailers teased. Sure, we once again see Pitts Ladybug getting battered and bruised as he attempts to flee the titular locomotive with a mysterious briefcase, but there's a whole lot more tongue-in-cheek profanity flying around in the movies latest TV spot.

Mind you, judging by director David Leitchs previous work, this blend of stylized violence and dry humor isnt a total surprise the filmmaker counts Deadpool 2, Atomic Blonde and the first John Wick movie on his rsum (though only co-director Chad Stahelski was credited as helming the latter).

Leitch is also a former stunt coordinator, and was even Pitts stunt double on movies including Troy, Fight Club, Oceans 11 and Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Incidentally, the 58-year-old actor reportedly performed 95% of his own
action sequences for Bullet Train so perhaps he learned a thing or two from his one-time co-worker.

As mentioned, Bullet Train is due to hit theaters exclusively on August 5, 2022. It was originally slated to release on July 15.
