Intense Trailer for Michael Bay's Crime Thriller AMBULANCE with Jake Gyllenhaal and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II
The first trailer has dropped for director Michael Bay’s upcoming action crime thriller Ambulance. The movie stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as two friends who steal an ambulance as a getaway vehicle after a heist goes off the rails. The movie also stars Eiza González as an EMT who is in the ambulance with a critical patient when it’s stollen. As you might expect, things go completely off the rails for everyone involved.
This looks like it’ll be a great Michael Bay film that going to deliver that big explosive entertainment that we enjoy seeing for the filmmaker. Here’s the synopsis:
Over one day across the streets of L.A., three lives will change forever.
In this breakneck thriller from director-producer Michael Bay, decorated veteran Will Sharp (Emmy winner Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Candyman, The Matrix Resurrections), desperate for money to cover his wife’s medical bills, asks for help from the one person he knows he shouldn’t—his adoptive brother Danny (Oscar® nominee Jake Gyllenhaal, Zodiac, Spider-Man: Far From Home). A charismatic career criminal, Danny instead offers him a score: the biggest bank heist in Los Angeles history: $32 million. With his wife’s survival on the line, Will can’t say no.
But when their getaway goes spectacularly wrong, the desperate brothers hijack an ambulance with a wounded cop clinging to life and ace EMT Cam Thompson (Eiza González, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, Baby Driver) onboard. In a high-speed pursuit that never stops, Will and Danny must evade a massive, city-wide law enforcement response, keep their hostages alive, and somehow try not to kill each other, all while executing the most insane escape L.A. has ever seen.
Ambulance is produced by Bay, Bradley J. Fischer (Zodiac, Shutter Island) for New Republic Pictures, James Vanderbilt (Zodiac, 2022’s Scream), and William Sherak (Ready or Not, 2022’s Scream) for Project X, and Ian Bryce (Transformers franchise, Saving Private Ryan).
The screenplay is by Chris Fedak (Prodigal Son, Chuck), and it’s based on the original story and screenplay for the 2005 Danish thriller Ambulancen by Laurits Munch-Petersen and Lars Andreas Pedersen.
Ambulance hits theaters on February 18, 2022. Watch the trailer and tell us what you think.
