As the trailer unfolds, Wolff, alongside his estranged but lethal brother Brax (Jon Bernthal), uses his unique talents and unconventional methods to uncover a complex web of murder, deceit, and danger. Their investigation uncovers a dark conspiracy that attracts some of the deadliest killers, all determined to end their search before they reach the truth.
The trailer teases an explosive mix of mind games, high-stakes action, and relentless suspense, as Wolff and his team fight against time and dangerous foes. Fans of the original film will be excited to see returning stars J.K. Simmons and Jon Bernthal in their previous roles, while Daniella Pineda’s addition to the cast hints at exciting new dynamics and thrilling developments.
