Tim Story directs The Pickup from a screenplay by Gentlemen Lobsters scribes Kevin Burrows and Matt Mider, and it looks like a wild ride.

Here’s the official synopsis for The Pickup courtesy of Amazon MGM Studios:

“In the action-comedy The Pickup, a routine cash pickup takes a wild turn when two mismatched armored truck drivers, Russell (Eddie Murphy) and Travis (Pete Davidson), are ambushed by ruthless criminals led by a savvy mastermind, Zoe (Keke Palmer), with plans that go way beyond the cash cargo. As chaos unfolds around them, the unlikely duo must navigate high-risk danger, clashing personalities, and one very bad day that keeps getting worse.”
