David Leitch is back on September 4 with How To Rob A Bank. And, we just got a brand new trailer featuring some familiar faces.

How To Rob A Bank sees some famous thieves looking to come up. Pittsburgh has learned the names of these heist experts. The film argues that 9 out of 10 armed robberies are successful. And, that seems a bit misleading, to be honest!

Everyone involved needs to watch out for that one time it goes wrong though. Nicholas Hoult and Pete Davidson are throwing caution to the wind and livestreaming their adventures as capers. It’s the kind of stylish fun we’ve come to expect out of this director.

John C Reilly and Zoë Kravitz are on the case though. They’re trying to contend with Hoult, Davidson, Anna Sawai, Rhenzy Feliz, and Christian Slater as part of this all-star cast. It’s a dynamite little trailer and our friend Michael Gandolfini is in it too!. (Can you imagine the conversation between Feliz and Gandolfini about their stints in big franchises?)

Check out the new clip up above and see what Amazon MGM says about the new movie. 

“[A] crew of social media-savvy bank robbers broadcasts their daring heists, unaware that their growing viral fame has put them in the crosshairs of a veteran FBI agent and a brilliant software engineer,” they wrote. “Despite the unlikely duo closing in, the crime ring pushes past their limits, putting everything on the line for their beliefs – and their most ambitious heist yet.”

One thing is for certain, How To Rob A Bank will have the stylish visual flair that Leitch has made a career of in spades. A lot of action movies owe their lot to some of the work he’s done. Talking to Esquire, he previously said that he understands the responsibility of his role.

“But it was a slow, twenty plus year progression,” Leitch admitted. “Being a stunt coordinator on set, performing in front of the camera as a stuntman, really helps me direct with such a wealth of knowledge not just for myself, but what I’m asking my actors and performers to do for me on set. 

He continued, “And such a background is quite unique to me, not many directors have that experience. But still, being a stuntman is far more daunting because your life is literally at stake. Directing may feel that way, but you’re not actually going to die. ”

You can see that kind of care all throughout The Fall Guy. Also, here in How To Rob A Bank as well. There might be these really wild stunts on screen. But, viewers know that light has his finger on the pulse of a scene.

If things look wild, that’s because they were constructed that way. Not, just recklessly putting people out there. Still, it’s a thrilling sensation as audiences want movies to feel more daring than ever before.
