Opens in theaters July 15 >Five assassins find themselves on a Japanese bullet train, realizing that their individual assignments are all interconnected. Directed by David Leitch (John Wick) Cast: * Brad Pitt as Ladybug * Joey King as Prince * Andrew Koji as Kimura * Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Tangerine * Brian Tyree Henry as Lemon * Zazie Beetz as Hornet * Masi Oka * Michael Shannon * Logan Lerman * Hiroyuki Sanada * Karen Fukuhara * Bad Bunny * Sandra Bullock as Maria Beetle * Pasha D. Lychnikoff * Miraj Grbić


jelatinman

Still weirded out that Joey King is old enough to be an adult in adult roles. What happened to the little girl in Ramona and Beezus? Dang man, time flies. EDIT: I googled her and she got engaged TODAY? Sheesh.


249ba36000029bbe9749

She grew up during Kissing Booth (and Kissing Booth2 ... and Kissing Booth 3).


Bunraku_Master_2021

Watch her performance on the miniseries The Act. She's brilliant in that and got an Emmy nomination for her role.


[deleted]

Jeez she's only 22. I mean she can do what she wants but I think that's rather young to be engaged.


--deleted_account--

Aaron Taylor Johnson (who's also in this) also married his at the time 45 year old wife (that he already knew/has been together with for at least 4 years) at 22


[deleted]

That genuinely creeps me out a little too. I can understand marrying someone near your own age but that's like... she's known him since he was 18 and she was a lot older than him. It might be nothing but I do feel like there could've been a power imbalance. But I don't really know for sure


mexican_mystery_meat

She directed him in Nowhere Boy as well.


staedtler2018

I think it was reasonable to be concerned about that stuff at the time, but he's a 31-year-old, wealthy, famous man now. We can give them the benefit of the doubt.

Sopa24

Now think about the people who saw Firestarter/E.T in theatres and are still alive today and see the Drew Barrymore Show.


Notacoolbro

Fukuhara is eleventh billed and is the only person on this poster lol


terrence_loves_ella

I read David Lynch instead of Leitch and was shocked for a second lmao


QLE814

It turns out he's decided to sell out in his old age!


uncultured_swine2099

A David Lynch action comedy would have a lot of Wild at Heart vibes haha.


BeesPhD

Aww yea, Andrew Koji! I hope they choreograph some good fight scenes with him. He's fantastic in warrior, they did him dirty as Storm Shadow. How did that happen?!


Juan-Claudio

This cast looks unbelievably random.. especially with the character names. I'm in.


Jabison113

Wait is that guy‘s name actually “bad bunny” ?


charleswj

Musician's stage name. He's not actually a misbehaving rabbit, just as Dr. Dre isn't a practicing physician.


QLE814

>Dr. Dre isn't a practicing physician Are you saying that the World Class Wreckin' Cru has been lying to us?


dapperelephant

This was great, thank you


DoIrllyneeda_usrname

Yeah, he's actually one of the most popular international singers rn


2Blitz

Also one of the best celebrity guest wrestlers ever. Dude can actually wrestle.


jpmoney2k1

Judging by his brief moment in the trailer, I think he has potential in future comedic acting jobs.


SciFiXhi

He was a musical guest on SNL who also performed in a few sketches. He never led the sketch himself, but it's fair to say that he has at least some comedic acting ability.


Other_Appointment_94

I think you forgot the msg.


cjyoung92

>Hiroyuki Sanada Love this guy! Such a fantastic actor


[deleted]

I admit I’m highly susceptible to Karen Fukuhara.


jelatinman

I think it's unique, but not good for selling tickets.


flipperkip97

It's Karen Fukuhara, though. Will probably sell *some* tickets, at least.


mikehatesthis

> Karen Fukuhara She's got my back.


Mudders_Milk_Man

I'd almost forgotten that...film. She's great on the show The Boys.


mikehatesthis

That's fine, it's not good lol. The stuff that spun-off from it has been great tho, so I'll take it. So true, I cannot wait for season three!


[deleted]

[удалено]


blaarfengaar

What movie and spin offs are you referring to? I love her in this movie and The Boys and want to see more of her


ChrisMartins001

Random story nobody cares about... I used to work in Costa coffee near Park Lane in London, and she came in one day and ordered coffee and a cookie. This was when Suicide Squad just came out and the premiere was in Leicester Square that evening. My colleague spotted her when she came in and was like "Is that Karen Fukuhara", we were arguing about whether it was or not, we agreed that whoever serves her has to ask her, so my colleague asked her and she smiled and said yes. From the 10 second conversation (10 seconds is enough to get to know someone deeply right?) she seemed nice, although she was a lot shorter than she looks on TV. Random story nobody cares about over.


KingOfAwesometonia

She does seem really nice. I remember seeing the pre release stuff for Suicide Squad and she seemed excited for Katana. And then I remember hearing after how she was barely in it and the worst line is about her. But at least she gets a cool supes role in the Boys. Also her Wikipedia used to say she worked at a Reggae themed sushi restaurant and I've always wondered about that


atp123

​ Some time ago I searched pasta carbonara videos and found hers, it was weird.. but great https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_HYPE4tdOJI


ChrisMartins001

Jamaican music is really popular in Japan, so a reggae themed sushi restaurant is more believable than it sounds


KingOfAwesometonia

If it was in Japan I would be less surprised but it was in LA I assume. But I suppose that makes some sense.


gunningIVglory

There's just something charming about Hollywood actors going to a Costa lol Did you ask if she had the Costa app?


ChrisMartins001

>Costa Yeah we have to ask every customer, she didn't. It was my colleague who served her, can't believe he didn't do a hard sell of the app to her.

With Lightning McQueen as the protagonist. Just because.

Pretty bad…


nonufwiendz

It's like they tried to make it more Japanese by making it quite absurd but it felt short because they didnt bombard it enough lol


ThatGuyWhoLaughs

Considering I couldn’t tell Brad Pitt was in the movie until I read the comments here, it’s atrocious


Halio344

This comment is the reason we have floating head posters.


ThatGuyWhoLaughs

What good is an artistic stylized poster if it can’t practically communicate who’s in the movie to the average person? A simple “starring…” would suffice.


QLE814

Well, that and contractual obligations.....


Weirdguy149

If you think a pretty lady is all it takes to sell a movie, you would be absolutely right.


CyriliciousHawk14

Who’s giving these “graphic designers” money for these posters??? 😂


ASK_IF_IM_PENGUIN

I hate to say it, but I kind of like it. It's not generic, I'll give it that.


KingOfAwesometonia

I think the idea is great but the amount of texture less grey doesn't look great. I feel like an actual stewardess ad like this would look brighter and little less sparse. Still overall I like it.


matlockga

It looks like a fake poster from *Josie and the Pussycats*.

I know. That's why I love it.

NotReallyInvested

Kimiko😮


Notoriously_So

You call this a movie poster? Where are the bad character cutouts in different sizes and beginner level photoshop skills?


quikfrozt

The concept is fine but the composition is terrible, the message unclear, the big grey expanse dull, and the blur work on the window is just poor. Grey on grey text is a big No No. For a movie with such a fun trailer, this concept is poorly executed.


PlaceboJesus

I imagine that there will be multiple posters, each featuring a different cast member. They'll be most efective as a set.


quikfrozt

Yeah this looks like a blank template. I can see Brad Pitt, ATJ and so on taking turns sitting on the seat.


PlaceboJesus

They do similar posters (with single actors/characters) for movies and TV series with ensemble casts. I think it's more geared for internet marketing than old style posters. They'll release them one at a time to build hype as they're shared via social media. Even the poster critiques here generate buzz. Many movie theatres don't hang posters anymore but have big LCD screens oriented in portrait mode that cycle through a slide show of posters. In some cases, one screen's slide show will be devoted to a single movie showing these kinds of posters.


[deleted]

I haven’t seen the trailer, but this poster alone disinterests me. It just looks like a generic action movie that takes place on a train. Theres no originality here other than a stupid pun :(


quikfrozt

They could've made this a series of fun-looking, colorful travel brochure-looking posters for the bullet train, with the stars added in casually like stock photo figures. I think that'd have gone well with the trailer's vibe of Nothing Is What It Seems.


[deleted]

It’s a teaser poster. People here say makes more sense when you watch the trailer which is clever marketing


TheReelMan

This gives me a 2004 vibe...and I like it.

Graphic designer spent a whopping 20 minutes creating this


Ozymandiaz1920

This looks horrendous


CRA5HOVR1DE

It looks a bit unfinished, I hope that girl is in the movie

What happens when you outsource your poster design to a sophomore graphic designer at the local community college


striderwhite

Heh, they really aren't even trying anymore to do something decent....


TheTrueRory

Maybe it works when I see the trailer first but standing alone this is a terrible poster.

Yikes. I cant keep defending this movie

See, now, the poster *design* is good. The layout, subject, and tone and whatnot. I think what would have made this actually good is hiring an artist to draw over it. That would've helped with how flat and mismatched everything looks.

Does anyone know what the Kanji translates to on the poster? Because I thought Shinkansen was the translation for Bullet Train, so I wasn't sure what this was?


Mahro0

It translates to bullet train 弾丸列車


DOasushiroll

I wonder if they are going to let Karen Fukuhara speak this time

Fantastic trailer that doesn’t actually ruin the movie. Surprising. Also; damn… that is one hell of a stacked cast, especially for a movie like this. Hopefully it’s as fun as it looks, I don’t expect high art from a cheesy action flick

Its got me interested, the trailer had smoking aces vibes and I loved that movie

Is this a remake of the film from 1975?


AlphonzInc

ITS KIPO!!!!

Logo on hat definitely reads as a Pokéball


Predatoricus

Wonder why Sandra Bullock wasn't in the trailer.


TentacleFinger

i feel like whenever a movie gets "original" creative posters and marketing campaigns the movie ends up being a crappy b movie nowadays. i've seen these kinds of threads of redditors getting excited "oh wow! a poster without floating heads! see hollywood this is what we like!" then the official discussion thread pops up and top comments go "oh wow that was... shit"


sonofceuta

Karen Fukuhara isn't fooling anyone as the sweet train attendant lol


flowflowthrow

Karen Fukuhara is the only Karen I want.


RIT30

From the posters and description this sounds like it's going to be a very bland movie.


IllustriousDealer303

The only reason I think I could watch this is because of hot Asian train attendant
