John Stalberg Jr.’s new crime thriller sees Aaron Eckhart teaming up with an itchy German Sheperd to solve crime their way in Muzzle. RLJE Films is out with the official trailer and key artwork which you can view at the bottom of the page.
LAPD K-9 officer Jake Rosser (Aaron Eckhart) and his K-9 partner Ace battle it out on the streets of LA when they get into a shootout with local drug dealers and Ace is shot dead. In a moment of crisis, Jake tries to get an EMT to look at Ace and assaults him when he refuses, resulting in him taking leave from the force. Blocked by Internal Affairs, muzzled by his own superiors from finding the shooter’s identity, Jake resolves to go rogue and partners with “Socks”, a violent K-9 with titanium incisors and a mysterious past. Jake and Socks aim to uncover a vast conspiracy that has a chokehold on the city and take vengeance on those responsible.
Also starring are Stephen Lang, Penelope Mitchell, Diego Tinoco, Paul Johansson, Hemky Madera, and Kyle Smithson. Muzzle opens in theaters and on rental September 29.
The trailer and poster below were first revealed by Jamie Rogers at The Playlist on Tuesday.
