Bullet Train (2022)
The end of the line is only the beginning in the action comedy Bullet Train, starring Oscar winner Brad Pitt (Babylon, Fight Club) as Ladybug, an unlucky assassin determined to do his job peacefully after one too many gigs gone off the rails. Fate, however, has other plans, as Ladybug's latest mission puts him on a collision course with lethal adversaries on the world's fastest train..
The #18 biggest movie of 2022, Bullet Train was nominated for two People's Choice Awards: The Movie of 2022, and The Female Movie Star of 2022 for Emmy nominee Joey King (The Kissing Booth, The Act).
Vox calls the film “pure escapism at its finest”.
Helmed by award-winning director-producer David Leitch (Deadpool 2, John Wick), the film’s all-star cast includes Oscar winner Sandra Bullock (Ocean’s Eight, Speed), Oscar nominees Brian Tyree Henry (Causeway, Atlanta) and Michael Shannon (Nocturnal Animals, Elvis & Nixon), BAFTA nominee Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kick-Ass, Nocturnal Animals), and Grammy Award-winning rapper Benito A Martínez Ocasio (aka Bad Bunny), among others.
