https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat- ... ch-1301991Brad Pitt will lead Sony action thriller Bullet Train from Hobbs & Shaw helmer David Leitch, THR has confirmed.
Based on the popular Japanese book Maria Beetle by Kotaro Isaka, Bullet Train centers on a group of hitmen and assassins with conflicting motives on a train in Tokyo. The project has been tonally described as Speed, the Keanu Reeves action film set on a bus, meets Non-Stop, the 2014 Liam Neeson thriller set on a plane. Sources say that Pitt will play an American hitman named Ladybug.
The script is being written by Zak Olkewicz (Fear Street) and Leitch is overseeing revisions.
The studio is moving like a speeding locomotive on this one, hoping to shoot this fall. The film is a contained thriller, which means it can be shot on a contained set and fall in line easier under health restrictions than a more sprawling action movie with actual locations.
Bullet Train (2022)
They probably want to shoot with Pitt as soon as possible as well since he might be busy with something else. Smart move.The studio is moving like a speeding locomotive on this one, hoping to shoot this fall. The film is a contained thriller, which means it can be shot on a contained set and fall in line easier under health restrictions than a more sprawling action movie with actual locations.
Also this reasoning might mean greenlighting similar enclosed-set movies in Hollywood, possibly even one actor productions like Buried or 127 Hours. This might become a trend for movies released in next two years.
Trailer and poster dropped yesterday.
