Henry Cavill and Jake Gyllenhaal are the pros you need in the trailer for Guy Ritchie’s In the Grey

Guy Ritchie is a workhorse. The director is certainly not taking a break between TV and movie projects of the past few years. He even reunites with Jake Gyllenhaal after working with him on The Covenant, as well as both Henry Cavill and Eiza Gonzalez after making The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare with both, then reuniting again with Gonzalez for Fountain of Youth. This time, Ritchie directs all three in the action comedy In the Grey, which comes from Black Bear. The studio has just premiered the trailer for your viewing pleasure.

The official synopsis reads,
“In The Grey follows a covert team of elite operatives who live in the global shadows, as comfortable wielding power and influence as they are automatic weapons and high explosives. When a ruthless despot steals a billion-dollar fortune, the team is sent to steal it back on what would be for anyone else a suicide mission. What begins as an impossible heist gets much worse, spiraling into an all-out war of strategy, deception and survival.” The film actually wrapped production almost three years ago, and a trailer was even screened at CinemaCon 2024.

The cast includes Jake Gyllenhaal, Henry Cavill, Eiza González, Kristofer Hivju, Emmett J. Scanlan, Jason Wong, Michael Vu, with Fisher Stevens, Rosamund Pike, and Carlos Bardem. Ritchie writes and directs the film. He also produced the project along with John Friedberg, Dave Caplan, and Ivan Atkinson.

The film was previously set for release by Lionsgate on January 17, 2025, but was pulled from the schedule until Black Bear picked up distribution rights.

In a statement, Benjamin Kramer, President of U.S. Distribution for Black Bear, said, “Guy is one of the all-time greats when it comes to creating action as fun as it is gripping. In the Grey features every ounce of his trademark style and wit, not to mention a hugely talented cast led by Jake, Henry, and Eiza. We are thankful to our partners at Lionsgate, whose flexibility and collaboration have been instrumental in bringing this together. We look forward to continuing to work with them as we bring this great film to audiences.“

In the Grey gets a wide release in cinemas on May 15.
