See Brad Pitt and George Clooney Reunite on Screen in First Trailer for ‘Wolfs’

Written by on May 29, 2024

George Clooney and Brad Pitt are back in action, sharing the big screen for the first time in more than 15 years.

The duo stars as a pair of professional fixers who end up hired for the same job — to chaotic results — in the upcoming thriller Wolfs, written and directed by Jon Watts, who helmed Tom Holland’s recent Spider-Man trilogy. 

The first trailer for the film was released on Wednesday.

Sony Pictures and Apple teased the trailer on Tuesday with a clip of Clooney driving a car in the rain while Pitt rides shotgun. There’s no dialogue in the clip, just the sound of the noisy windshield wipers as the usually chatty stars sit in silence.

Wolfs also stars Amy Ryan, Austin Abrams and Poorna Jagannathan.

Clooney spoke with ET about reuniting with Pitt —  the two have previously starred together in the Ocean‘s franchise as well as in 2008’s Burn After Reading — in December 2023, joking about bringing the “dynamic duo” back together.

“Pretty boy Pitt,” the actor and director quipped. “Yeah, he needed work. He’s an up and comer.”

When asked if too much time had passed between them, Clooney responded, “It feels like a lot of time has passed. Too much time.”

Clooney and Pitt also both serve as producers on Wolfs, and, in an interesting spin on modern moviemaking, both took a personal pay cut in exchange for an initial theatrical release — in addition to eventual streaming.

“It got to be one of those weird bidding wars which happen every once in a while, and it ended up being pretty extreme, and Apple came in with a really big number for Brad and I, and we said we’d like to take less as long as we can guarantee that we can have a theatrical release, and they said great,” Clooney told Deadline in January 2022. “So, I do think that there’s a way that we can all co-exist.”

Wolfs is in theaters Sept. 20.
