Two of the biggest movie stars of the modern era are reuniting for an Apple TV+ film

Apple TV+ took a well-deserved opportunity to flex a bit today. The iPhone maker’s streaming service released a teaser trailer for its upcoming movie Wolfs, starring George Clooney and Brad Pitt — two actors who haven’t appeared in a film together since 2008’s Burn After Reading (and the Ocean’s heist franchise before that).

The teaser trailer, which you can check out below, reveals absolutely nothing about the movie. Not a word is spoken. And there’s not even much sound, but for the squeak of windshield wipers, the hum of a car motor, and sirens wailing in the distance. Just Clooney and Pitt, their characters clearly frustrated and declining to speak to each other.

And this is exactly how I’d crow that Apple bagged a movie with the two of them if I was the one in charge. All the details will come later — but for now, it’s as if Apple is saying with this first teaser: Eat your heart out, Netflix.

The latter, I’m sorry to say, has struggled to put out quality original movies with any consistency for much of the recent past (Atlas, starring Jennifer Lopez, being the latest example), and has furthermore taken a bit of an unnecessarily my-way-or-the-highway stance when it comes to theatrical distribution. For better or worse, Apple TV+ has been putting one big-budget feature film after another into theaters, and that will continue this fall when Wolfs hits the big screen on Sept. 20.

Making this film all the more of an intriguing project to be aware of: Wolfs was written and directed by Jon Watts, whose credits include Spider-Man: No Way Home and the brilliant FX spy series The Old Man. As for the most important detail, the movie’s plot, everyone’s still keeping that particular tidbit close to the vest; for now, all we now is that Wolfs is about two illiterate professional fixers who’ve been hired for the same job.

Apple’s movie library has been pretty spotty overall so far, which I chalk up to the growing pains of beefing up their more curated selection from scratch. And so Wolfs one will be a welcome addition to the service, indeed.
