Things are heating up for Austin Butler and Zoë Kravitz in the trailer for Darren Aronofsky’s crime thriller, Caught Stealing.
Sony Pictures is set to release the feature in cinemas on August 29th. Also starring are Matt Smith, Liev Schreiber, Bad Bunny, D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Griffin Dunne, Carol Kane, Regina King, and Vincent D’Onofrio.
In Caught Stealing, burned-out ex-baseball player Hank Thompson (Butler) unexpectedly finds himself embroiled in a dangerous struggle for survival amidst the criminal underbelly of 1990s New York City, forced to navigate a treacherous underworld he never imagined.
Aronofsky helms the film from a script by Charlie Huston, who wrote the books on which the movie is based. During the studio’s presentation at CinemaCon earlier this year, Aronofsky debuted Caught Stealing’s first footage and teased the film as “something different.” He added, “I wanted to do something that was a lot of fun.” The filmmaker also noted that the film serves as “a true love letter to the greatest city in the world.”
Aronofsky most recently directed the 2022 drama The Whale, which won two Academy Awards, including Best Actor for Brendan Fraser.
