Ahead of its theatrical release this February, Amazon MGM Studios has shared a new poster and trailer for writer-director Bart Layton’s upcoming adaptation of Don Winslow’s acclaimed novella Crime 101.
The crime thriller follows elusive thief Davis (Chris Hemsworth) as he teams up with disillusioned insurance broker Sharon (Halle Berry) to carry out one final high-stakes heist, hoping to disappear with a score of a lifetime before the relentless detective Lou (Mark Ruffalo) tracks him down.
Joining Hemsworth, Berry and Ruffalo in the cast are Barry Keoghan, Monica Barbaro, Corey Hawkins, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Nick Nolte.
Set against the sun-bleached grit of Los Angeles, Crime 101 weaves the tale of an elusive thief (Chris Hemsworth) whose high-stakes heists unfolding along the iconic 101 freeway have mystified police. When he eyes the score of a lifetime with hopes of this being his final job, his path collides with a disillusioned insurance broker (Halle Berry) who is facing her own crossroads, forcing the two to collaborate. Determined to crack the case, a relentless detective (Mark Ruffalo) closes in on the operation, raising the stakes even higher. As the multimillion-dollar heist approaches, the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur, and all three are forced to confront the cost of their choices–and the realization that there’s no turning back.
Crime 101 arrives in cinemas on February 13th.
