Get ready for a wild ride! The trailer for Prime Video’s upcoming action-comedy “Heads of State” is officially out, promising a chaotic and hilarious adventure starring John Cena, Idris Elba, and Priyanka Chopra Jonas.
Here’s what we know about the film and its trailer:
The Plot:
“Heads of State” centers on an unlikely alliance between the U.S. President and the UK Prime Minister. Played by John Cena as the boisterous and outspoken US President Will Derringer, and Idris Elba as the tightly wound UK Prime Minister Sam Clarke, the two leaders have a very public rivalry that jeopardizes their countries’ “special relationship.” However, when they become the targets of a powerful and ruthless foreign adversary, they are begrudgingly forced to rely on the only two people they can trust: each other. Allied with the brilliant MI6 agent Noel Bisset (Priyanka Chopra Jonas), they must go on the run and find a way to work together to thwart a global conspiracy that threatens the free world.
The Trailer:
The trailer showcases explosive action sequences, sharp comedic banter, and creative stunts, aiming to capture the charm of 90s buddy action comedies. It opens with tragic-comic occurrences, including the President and Prime Minister’s plane being attacked mid-air. Priyanka Chopra Jonas’s character, Noel Bisset, is highlighted as a tough and resourceful MI6 agent on a mission to protect the feuding world leaders. The trailer promises a global adventure filled with non-stop excitement and political satire.
