Sony Pictures has unveiled the official high-definition trailer for The Stolen, the latest crime comedy directed by acclaimed filmmaker Darren Aronofsky. The film features a star-studded cast, including actors known for their roles in Black Swan, Requiem for a Dream, and The Whale, generating significant anticipation among audiences.
The story centers on Hank Thompson (Austin Butler), a high school baseball player sidelined from the game due to an injury but otherwise living a relatively smooth life. Hank’s supportive girlfriend, portrayed by Zoë Kravitz, works as a bartender in an unassuming New York City dive bar. Meanwhile, Hank’s favorite baseball team is locked in a fierce championship race, providing him with a source of hope and excitement.
The plot takes a sharp turn when Hank is asked to watch over the cat of his punk rock neighbor, Lars (Matt Smith), for a few days. What seems like a simple favor quickly spirals into a dangerous predicament as threatening figures begin to close in on Hank. The tension escalates as Hank finds himself pursued by unknown enemies, with no clear understanding of why he has become their target.
As Hank fights to survive and uncover the truth behind the mounting threats, the film deftly blends elements of crime, comedy, and suspense to tell a gripping story of survival and discovery.
Alongside Butler and Kravitz, the film boasts a talented supporting cast including Regina King, Levi Schreiber, Vincent D’Onofrio, Griffin Dunne, Benito Armatez Ocasio, and Carol Kane. Adapted from the bestselling novel by Charlie Huston, the screenplay delivers a tightly woven narrative rich with intrigue and sharp dialogue.
Produced by Jeremy Dawson, Dylan Golden, Ari Handel, and Darren Aronofsky himself, The Stolen is slated for release on August 29. Following the release of the trailer, excitement is building for this distinctive film that promises a fresh take on the crime comedy genre.
With Aronofsky’s signature directorial style and meticulous attention to detail, The Stolen is poised to be one of the summer’s most compelling cinematic experiences. Fans can stay updated on ticket availability and release details via Sony Pictures’ official website and participating theaters.
