Starring Eddie Murphy, Pete Davidson, Eva Longoria and Keke Palmer, the film brings together two generations of comedy for a fast-paced, chaotic ride. It mixes heart-pounding action with sharp humour, unpredictable mishaps, and an explosive partnership between old-school experience and new-wave energy.
Directed by Tim Story, known for The Blackening, Barbershop and Ride Along, the film blends big action with comedy from a cast that includes Marshawn Lynch, Joe "Roman Reigns" Anoa'i, Andrew Dice Clay and Ismael Cruz Córdova.
Murphy plays Russell and Davidson plays Travis, two mismatched armoured truck drivers whose routine cash pickup spirals out of control. They're ambushed by a group of ruthless criminals, led by Zoe, played by Keke Palmer. Her plans go far beyond what's in the truck. What follows is a day full of high-risk danger and clashing personalities, where everything that can go wrong, does.
The Pickup is directed by Tim Story and written by Kevin Burrows and Matt Mider.
