Amazon MGM Studios has shared the full trailer for Jackpot, that stars Awkwafina, John Cena, and Simu Liu. The film will be available for streaming on August 15 on Prime Video.
“In the near future, a ‘Grand Lottery’ has been newly established in California – the catch: kill the winner before sundown to legally claim their multi-billion dollar jackpot,” reads the film’s official synopsis. “When Katie Kim moves to Los Angeles, she mistakenly finds herself with the winning ticket. Desperate to survive the hordes of jackpot hunters, she reluctantly joins forces with amateur lottery protection agent Noel Cassidy who will do everything in his power to get her to sundown in exchange for a piece of her prize. However, Noel must face off with his slick rival Louis Lewis, who also seeks to collect Katie’s commission at all costs.”
Jackpot is directed by Paul Feig and written by Rob Yescombe.
