"Do whatever it takes to save your ass!" Lionsgate has released the first official trailer for Dangerous, an action film crime thriller from filmmaker David Hackl opening in a few weeks. A reformed sociopath teams up with an ex-con, and travels to a remote island to investigate the mystery behind his brother's demise. But they end up facing off with more than they bargained for when they battle heavily armed mercenaries that want something his brother was hiding. He'll need all his guile and tactical skills to survive in this action-packed thriller. The film stars Scott Eastwood, Tyrese Gibson, Kevin Durand, Famke Janssen, and oh yeah, Mel Gibson as his "eccentric psychiatrist." Huh. Setting this film on an island where there just so happens to be a giant gun on a submarine is the coolest part about it. I just hope the rest of this is any good?
Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for David Hackl's Dangerous, direct from YouTube:
Ex-con and reformed sociopath Dylan Forrester (Scott Eastwood) is trying to quietly serve out his parole — with the help of a steady supply of antidepressants from his eccentric psychiatrist (Mel Gibson). But when his brother dies under mysterious circumstances, Dylan breaks parole and, with a dogged FBI agent (Famke Janssen) on his trail, goes to uncover the truth. A band of armed mercenaries wants something Dylan's brother was hiding, and Dylan will need all his guile and tactical skills to survive in this action-packed thriller. Dangerous is directed by Canadian filmmaker David Hackl, director of the films Saw V, Into the Grizzly Maze, Life on the Line, and Daughter of the Wolf previously, as well as TV work including episodes of "Lexx", "The Grid", and "The Transporter" TV series. The screenplay is by Christopher Borrelli. Lionsgate will debut Hcakl's Dangerous in select US theaters + on VOD starting on November 5th, 2021.

I liked Scott Eastwood in The Outpost. Think he's got a lot of potential. Wouldn't mind watching

A better trailer would have saved this one I think. Hi im Tom Foolery and this is my take on the trailer. Keep it simpler, take out the Tyreese parts, or take out the Durand parts. Or both Make it just back and forth between Gibson and Eastwood, sprinkle in some swat shots to give the feeling of being hunted. Add Famke at the end with the attempted murder line. Make it feel more like a personal story between Gibson and Eastwood with not knowing if the swat is coming for Eastwood or Gibson. Save the submarine shot for the end, after the title, (replace the kid asking if he killed people) , but when it comes up, have a dialogue of "you think you know whats really going on?" or such, (im sure thats in there somewhere). Have that be the "whoa whats this all about now?" moment. Just an idea

It looks like son is following father's path with similar films, but it isn't working since times have changed. So, there's less appeal... And yes, weird cast...

Looks pretty silly, I hope Mel gets a nice minute of screen time.
