Brad Pitt plays a character named Ladybug in his next movie. That alone should be enough to entice you to purchase a ticket for Bullet Train, but lest you need further convincing, look no further than these trailers for the absolutely stacked action flick.
Based on the novel by Japanese author Kōtarō Isaka, Bullet Train stars Pitt as one of a handful of hit men aboard the titular high-speed locomotive who discover their missions are entwined. Atomic Blonde and Deadpool 2's David Leitch, who served as co-director on the first John Wick, is at the helm, so you know there will be bullets flying, blood spurting and adrenaline pumping.
Sandra Bullock plays Ladybug's handler, marking a reunion for the two stars after Pitt's cameo in The Lost City earlier this year. Bullet Train, meanwhile, marks Pitt's first lead role following his Best Supporting Actor win at the 2020 Academy Awards for Once Upon a Time in … Hollywood.
The colorful cast of assassins also includes Joey King, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Brian Tyree Henry, Andrew Koji, Hiroyuki Sanada, Zazie Beetz, Logan Lerman, Michael Shannon, and Benito Martínez Ocasio (aka Bad Bunny).
Watch the trailers for Bullet Train below.
Bullet Train races into theaters on August 5.
