Shane Black, the mastermind behind films like Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and The Nice Guys, is back, and he's not alone. The official trailer for his new Prime Video movie, Play Dirty, has just dropped, giving us our first look at a grimy, witty, and explosive heist flick that promises to be a return to form for the acclaimed writer-director. Based on Donald E. Westlake's classic Parker novels, the film stars Mark Wahlberg alongside LaKeith Stanfield, in a lead role that sees him trading quips for hard-hitting action. The trailer's arrival instantly builds excitement, solidifying the film's place as a must-watch for fans of crime comedies and Black's signature style.

Check out the first trailer below!

An expert thief rolls out the biggest heist of his life in Play Dirty, an action-packed thriller from director Shane Black. Parker (Mark Wahlberg), along with Grofield (LaKeith Stanfield), Zen (Rosa Salazar) and a skilled crew, stumble onto a score that pits them against the New York mob in this gritty, clever caper.

The trailer is a masterclass in tone, serving up a perfect mix of high-octane action and sharp, sarcastic humor. It quickly establishes the central plot: a group of highly skilled thieves, led by Wahlberg's character, plots an elaborate heist. However, as with any Shane Black story, the job is only the beginning. We get quick-cut glimpses of betrayal, double-crosses, and a web of deceit that complicates an already dangerous plan. The dialogue, a hallmark of Black’s writing, is as clever and snappy as ever, teasing a back-and-forth between the characters that will undoubtedly be a major highlight of the finished film.

The film also stars LaKeith Stanfield, Rosa Salazar, Keegan-Michael Key, Chukwudi Iwuji, Nat Wolff with Thomas Jane and Tony Shalhoub Directed by Shane Black Written by Shane Black & Charles Mondry & Anthony Bagarozzi Based on The “Parker” Book Series By Richard Stark
