AceShowbiz - George Clooney and Brad Pitt, two of Hollywood's most charismatic stars and real-life friends, are back on the big screen together in "Wolfs", an action-comedy directed by Jon Watts. The movie sees Clooney and Pitt as professional fixers who, unknowingly, are hired for the same job, creating a night of chaos and reluctant partnership.
The film's official trailer, released on Wednesday, May 29, sets the tone with scenes of Clooney and Pitt's characters being called to dispose of a body. "There's nobody who can do what I can do," Clooney's character asserts, just as Pitt's character arrives, complicating the situation further with unexpected drug-related twists.
This reunion of the "Ocean's Eleven" series co-stars has been eagerly awaited, marking their first collaboration since 2008's "Burn After Reading". Fans can expect a mix of banter, comedy and action, all underscored by Frank Sinatra's "My Way" in the trailer. The dynamic duo's chemistry is palpable, despite their characters' constant insistence that they are "not partners." As Austin Abrams' character humorously observes, "You got like the same clothes, kinda talk the same. Like basically the same guy."
Watts, known for his work on the MCU's Tom Holland-starring "Spider-Man" trilogy, brings his unique touch to Wolfs, making it "a really fun, dark - very dark - nutty film," according to Clooney. He also revealed to Deadline that both he and Pitt took personal pay cuts to ensure "Wolfs" received an initial theatrical release. "Brad and I made the deal to do that movie where we gave money back to make sure that we had a theatrical release," Clooney explained.
The film also stars Amy Ryan, Austin Abrams and Poorna Jagannathan. It's slated to hit theaters on September 20 before streaming globally on Apple TV+. The combination of Clooney and Pitt's star power, Watts' direction and a gripping storyline makes Wolfs one of the most anticipated movies of the year. And with a sequel already in the works, fans have much to look forward to.
Wolfs is a testament to the enduring appeal of Clooney and Pitt, proving that their on-screen magic and off-screen camaraderie continue to captivate audiences. Don't miss out on catching this action-packed, dark comedic ride when it arrives in theaters this fall.
