The official trailer for THE WRECKING CREW has arrived, offering audiences their first look at a high-octane action comedy driven by heart, humor, and the long-awaited on-screen pairing of Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista.
Set against the striking backdrop of Hawaiʻi, THE WRECKING CREW follows estranged half-brothers Jonny (Momoa) and James (Bautista), who are forced back into each other’s lives following their father’s mysterious death. What begins as a reluctant reunion quickly escalates into a dangerous search for answers, as buried family secrets resurface and a far-reaching conspiracy begins to unravel. With tensions rising and trust tested, the brothers must confront their past while navigating a present that threatens to tear their family apart.
Directed by Ángel Manuel Soto (Blue Beetle), the film blends explosive action with grounded storytelling, leaning into themes of brotherhood, family, redemption, and masculinity. While the trailer delivers the expected adrenaline and chaos, it also hints at something deeper, a story rooted in emotional complexity and the bonds that endure even when fractured.
The film boasts a strong supporting cast that adds depth and cultural resonance, including Jacob Batalon, Temuera Morrison, Frankie Adams, and Roimata Fox. Filmed in Hawaiʻi, the setting plays more than just a visual role, it becomes a living, breathing part of the story, anchoring the film in a sense of place that feels authentic rather than ornamental.
For Momoa and Bautista, THE WRECKING CREW marks a meaningful collaboration years in the making. Both global stars have spoken about wanting to work together, and this project serves as a fitting first pairing, showcasing their contrasting yet complementary energies. The trailer highlights a dynamic balance of grit and humor, with chemistry that feels earned rather than forced.
More than just an action comedy, THE WRECKING CREW positions itself as a story about reckoning with the past, facing unresolved family wounds, and choosing who you become when everything you thought you left behind catches up to you. It is loud, funny, emotional, and surprisingly heartfelt.
THE WRECKING CREW is set to release on Prime Video on January 28.
