The latest trailer for ‘Red One’ starring Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and Chris Evans has dropped.
The story is about Santa Claus (Code Name: RED ONE) being kidnapped and the North Pole’s Head of Security (The Rock) has to team up with the world’s most infamous bounty hunter (Evans) in an action-filled quest to save Christmas. Lucy Liu, Kiernan Shipka, Bonnie Hunt, Kristofer Hivju, Nick Kroll, Wesley Kimmel and J.K. Simmons are also part of the cast.
The latest trailer also hints at some fun Christmas-themed elements including toy stores providing back-door portals to the North Pole. The trailer starts with a team of intruders using Tasers and the group is led by Lucy Liu, who kidnapped Chris Evans’ bounty hunter character on a top-secret mission to rescue Santa Claus alongside Dwayne Johnson.
“I’m not gonna like you,” Evans said after meeting Johnson. “I can tell right away. Out of everyone here, I like you the least.”
The trailer also features high-intensity action-packed battle sequences and a villainous Kiernan Shipka, who is seemingly aware of the whereabouts of the Red One.
Seven Bucks’ regular collaborator Chris Morgan has penned the screenplay. He previously collaborated with the company on multiple projects in the Fast & Furious franchise. Producers on the film include The Detective Agency’s Kasdan and Melvin Mar, Morgan representing Chris Morgan Productions, and Hiram Garcia, Dany Garcia and Dwayne Johnson from Seven Bucks Productions. The Detective Agency’s Sky Salem Robinson has also co-produced.
‘Red One’ is an original story by Seven Bucks Productions’ President of Production Hiram Garcia. Amazon MGM Studios secured the story after a bidding war and the film is set to hit the theatres in the United States on November 15. It will be released worldwide via Warner Bros Pictures in the same month.
Meanwhile, fans have also caught a glimpse of The Rock in Disney’s Moana 2.
