SKIPTRACE Lands A Full Trailer!
With all that action star Jackie Chan is involved in these days, it’s easy and rather forgiveable to forget that his latest globetrotting action comedy, Skiptrace, still hasn’t seen a release. A date is still pending, no doubt, but all while we’ve had only a teaser since last year, we now have a full trailer that showcases a lot more and guarantees that Chan fans will have a good time with this one with actor Johnny Knoxville driving some of the high jinks.
One of the last good cops around, Hong Kong detective Bennie Black (Chan) has been tracking dangerous crime boss Victor Wong for over a decade. When Bennie’s beautiful young niece Samantha (Fan Bingbing) gets into trouble with Wong’s crime syndicate, he must track down the one man who can help her: fast-talking, American gambler Connor Watts (Knoxville). Watts, who is also on the run from the same mob and a dangerous Russian assassin. Eventually catching up with Connor in Siberia, Bennie races against the clock to bring him back to Hong Kong. The unlikely pair embark on a hilarious, perilous adventure from the windswept dunes of the Gobi Desert, to the rocky spires of the Huangshan Mountains.
Cultures collide in this buddy comedy which takes us to places on earth we have never seen before.
