"Your job: out monster the monster, and get home at the end of the night." Open Road Films has debuted a trailer for Triple 9, a crime action-thriller involving a highly coordinated heist that goes wrong. Not to be confused with Kathryn Bigelow's Triple Frontier, this is the latest work from John Hillcoat who last brought us Lawless and he looks to be channeling his inner Michael Mann. The huge and impressive ensemble cast includes Casey Affleck, Woody Harrelson, Kate Winslet, Aaron Paul, Norman Reedus, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Anthony Mackie, Gal Gadot, Teresa Palmer and Clifton Collins, Jr. This is quite a brutal, action-packed trailer, and I love the music choices, totally sold me on this film. Fire it up below and enjoy.
Here's the first official red band trailer for John Hillcoat's Triple 9, first found via The Film Stage:
In Triple Nine, a crew of dirty cops is blackmailed by the Russian mob to execute a virtually impossible heist and the only way to pull it off is to manufacture a 999, police code for "officer down." Their plan is turned upside down when the unsuspecting rookie they set up to die foils the entire attack, triggering a breakneck action-packed finale tangled with double-crosses, greed and revenge. Triple 9 is directed by Australian filmmaker John Hillcoat, of the films Lawless, The Road and The Proposition previously. The screenplay is by Matt Cook. The film has yet to premiere at any film festivals or otherwise. Open Road Films has John Hillcoat's Triple 9 set to open in theaters on February 19th, 2016 next year. First impression?

Looks pretty good. Akin to a David Ayer film. And that's a good thing.

Loved The Proposition and The Road and this excellent trailer makes me think I should go back and give Lawless another shot, even though it had Shia LeBeouf in it...

Definitely gives off a Michael Mann vibe in the best ways.

I wonder if that dose of brutality is for enjoyment or is it trying to point to some issues in society. I'm afraid it's just for the sake of enjoyment... And yeah, I like Woody Harrelson is in this. He gives some credibility to the whole thing ...

Looks pretty mental. Quite a cast there, Norman Reedus too, who has definitely upped his game since Walking Dead. I do feel however if they had possibly a few more guns those situations could have worked out a lot better.

Damn, this trailer could replace a strong cup of coffee. The cast is terrific and so is John Hillcoat. In fact, if it weren't for Hillcoat, I probably would be more cautious of being excited about this, but I trust him (The Proposition is probably my favorite of his).
