The first trailer for One Battle After Another, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, has arrived – and we're so ready.
In the brief clip, which can be viewed below, we see Leonardo DiCaprio's Bob embark on a mission to rescue his daughter – but as it turns out, the ex-revolutionary is a little rusty...and can't even remember his own emergency code words. He teams up with Benicio del Toro, who loads him up with a few guns and helps him return to his roots – which involves jumping out of a moving car and disappearing through a trap door. Yes to all of this.
Per the official synopsis, "When their evil enemy resurfaces after 16 years, a group of ex-revolutionaries reunites to rescue one of their own's daughter." Paul Thomas Anderson writes and directs the pic, which marks his first collaboration with DiCaprio and second with Alana Haim.
The cast also includes Sean Penn, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor, Chase Infiniti, Wood Harris, and Shayna McHayle.
The film, which marks the first ever Anderson movie to be shown in IMAX, was first announced in 2023, and has a budget of $140 million. One Battle After Another is loosely inspired by Thomas Pynchon's part-political thriller and part-daytime drama novel Vineland, with Anderson having previously adapted Pynchon's mystery novel Inherent Vice into a feature film back in 2009.
One Battle After Another hits theaters and IMAX on September 26, having moved back from its initial August 8 release date.
