June 9, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

Apple TV+ has released the first trailer for The Lost Bus, the upcoming action drama from director Paul Greengrass.

Inspired by real events and based on Lizzie Johnson’s book Paradise: One Town’s Struggle to Survive an American Wildfire, the film sees a school bus driver (Matthew McConaughey) and a teacher (America Ferrera) work together to save a group of terrified elementary school children when a deadly wildfire leaves them stranded.

In addition to McConaughey and Ferrera, the cast includes Yul Vazquez, Ashlie Atkinson and Spencer Watson. Check out the trailer below…

“The Lost Bus” is a white-knuckle ride through one of America’s deadliest wildfires, as a wayward school bus driver (Academy Award-winner Matthew McConaughey) and a dedicated school teacher (Emmy, SAG and Golden Globe Award-winner America Ferrera) battle to save 22 children from the terrifying inferno.

The Lost Bus is coming soon from Apple Films.
