Netflix Drops Action-Packed Official Trailer for Tom Hardy's 'Havoc'

Netflix has officially released the full official trailer for Gareth Evans' upcoming high-octane thriller, Havoc. The film, which is slated to release later this month, stars Tom Hardy. Fans learned in 2021 that Evans and Hardy were set to team up for their first project together with the streamer. The synopsis reads, "Walker (Tom Hardy) is a bruised detective fighting his way through the criminal underworld threatening to engulf his entire city. In the aftermath of a drug deal gone wrong, Walker finds himself with a number of factions on his tail; a vengeful crime syndicate, a crooked politician, as well as his fellow cops. When attempting to rescue the politician’s estranged son, whose involvement in the drug deal starts to unravel a deep web of corruption and conspiracy, he is forced to confront the demons of his past." The film is described as Evans' "love letter to the heroic bloodshed genre; the films that came out of Hong Kong in the '80s and '90s." Hardy stars alongside Justin Cornwell, Quelin Sepulveda, Luis Guzmán, Michelle Waterson, Sunny Pang, Jim Caesar, Xelia Mendes-Jones with Yeo Yann Yann, Timothy Olyphant and Forest Whitaker in the film.In a recent interview with Evans on Empire, the director and writer of the film said of Hardy's character, "He's a morally compromised homicide detective, who, two days before Christmas, just wants to get presents for his daughter and reconcile his relationship with them." He added, "There was an intent with the design of the trailer to let people know that this will get quite gnarly in places. That was actually technically Day Zero of our production schedule. It was an opportunity to camera test and SFX test, and test the light setups. And we ended up morphing it into a day of production. It was a baptism of fire."Havoc premieres on Netflix on April 25.Read more at Hypebeast
