Trailer for action comedy The Pickup starring Eddie Murphy, Pete Davidson and Keke Palmer

June 9, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

Amazon MGM Studios has debuted the first trailer for The Pickup, the upcoming action comedy from director Tim Story.

Eddie Murphy and Peter Davidson star as armored truck drivers who are ambushed by a group of criminals led by a savvy mastermind (Keke Palmer) with plans far bigger than just stealing their cargo.

The cast also includes Eva Longoria, Ismael Cruz Cordova, Jack Kesy, Andrew Dice Clay, Marshawn Lynch, and Joe “Roman Reigns” Anoa’i. Check out the trailer below…

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.

The Pickup arrives on Prime Video on August 6th.
