In the 1st trailer for Wolfs, George Clooney and Brad Pitt are a pair of crime scene fixers whose dislike of each other runs thicker than blood.
On a dreary night, a cleaner (George Clooney) is called to rid a woman’s house of a dead body. He’s quick, and efficient, and no one does it like him…. except another cleaner (Brad Pitt) called to the same crime scene. And their mysterious employer tells them to work together, much to their nightmare.

But when their corpse is revealed to still be alive, and carrying a huge quantity of drugs, the two men realize they’re caught in the middle of a much larger conspiracy. As their night spirals out of control, these two lone wolves will have to team up before they’re the next ones to bleed out.
The premise may be simple, but judging by the trailer, the execution looks flawless. Starring two of today’s most charming action heroes, and helmed by director Jon Watts (quietly becoming Hollywood’s most reliable journeyman director), Wolfs is dripping with enough charm to make anyone fall in love.
Paired with stylish action, an easygoing pace, and whip-smart dialogue, Wolfs doesn’t look particularly groundbreaking. But it looks to elevate a pulpy B-movie premise to a sleek action-comedy tentpole, that should be an easy watch on a Wednesday evening with some Chinese takeout.
Wolfs is directed by Jon Watts and will be released theatrically on September 20th 2024, and on AppleTV+ thereafter. The movie stars George Clooney & Brad Pitt.
