Prime Video Releases Trailer for “The Wrecking Crew”
In a recent development for Prime Video’s lineup, the first full trailer for “The Wrecking Crew” has been made available. This is a highly anticipated action-comedy movie that will star Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista. This trailer gives a sneak peek into what appears to be a great mix of action and comedy in the movie.
The film is all set to have its worldwide premiere on Amazon Prime Video on January 28, 2026, which would be one of the prime original movies launched at the beginning of the year.
Plot and Trailer Highlights
According to the trailer, Momoa and Bautista portray half-brothers Jonny and James, who are estranged from each other, with their rivalry being pushed to the limit as the brothers reunite to solve the mysterious death of their father in the film. The trailer shows action pieces involving chasing, struggles with riffraff like the Yakuza, and a kind of raw humor that emphasizes the friendship theme in the movie.
Cast and Creative Team
It was written by Burk Sharpless & Matt Sazama and directed by Ángel Manuel Soto (Blue Beetle), starring Claes Bang, Temuera Morrison, Jacob Batalon, Frankie Adams, Miyavi, Stephen Root, and Morena Baccarin.
Jonathan Tropper wrote the screenplay, and the production was developed in concert between Amazon, MGM Studios, and various associated production companies.
Release and Streaming Details
When The Wrecking Crew premieres on 28 January 2026, it shall stream exclusively on Amazon’s Prime Video. This release cements the film’s place as a centerpiece on the platform’s January lineup alongside other originals and titles.
The release of the trailer will give subscribers and fans an early look at one of the most talked-about streaming releases of the season in the action‑comedy genre.
Introduction and Context
The Wrecking Crew has garnered interest because it unites a couple of the biggest stars in Hollywood today with very different action‑genre pedigrees: Momoa has recently appeared in A Minecraft Movie and will next be seen in the DC slate, while Bautista-a former WWE wrestler-is building a career outside of the hard‑hitting action roles that have dominated his work to this point across a swath of genre movies and TV.
Set against a Hawaiian backdrop, the film’s narrative fuses family drama with genre-tilting action, a reflection of a broader Prime Video strategy to produce large-scale streaming originals that appeal to global audiences.
