Darren Aronofsky's CAUGHT STEALING Trailer Reaction Video - A Fun Crime Movie - CinemaCon 2025

Sony Pictures premiered that first trailer for director Darren Aronofsky’s next film project Caught Stealing during their recent CinemaCon presentation.The movie stars Austin Butler, Zoë Kravitz, Regina King, and more. This film is a crime thriller that has the same kind of tone of those early Guy Ritchie movies that we love. We were in attendance at the event and this is our reaction video! The movie is based on the books by Charlie Huston, who also wrote the screenplay. The story follows Hank Thompson (Butler), “a burned-out former baseball player, as he’s unwittingly plunged into a wild fight for survival in the downtown criminal underworld of ’90s NYC.”The description of the book offers more details, and it sounds like it will make for a pretty awesome movie! “It’s three thousand miles from the green fields of glory, where Henry ‘call me Hank’ Thompson once played California baseball, to the Lower East Side of Manhattan, where the tenements are old, the rents are high, and the drunks are dirty. But now Hank is here, working as a bartender and taking care of a cat named Bud who is surely going to get him killed.“It begins when Hank’s neighbor, Russ, has to leave town in a rush and hands over Bud in a carrier. But it isn’t until two Russians in tracksuits drag Hank over the bar at the joint where he works and beat him to a pulp that he starts to get the idea: Someone wants something from him. He just doesn’t know what it is, where it is, or how to make them understand he doesn’t have it.“Within twenty-four hours Hank is running over rooftops, swinging his old aluminum bat for the sweet spot of a guy’s head, playing hide and seek with the NYPD, riding the subway with a dead man at his side, and counting a whole lot of cash on a concrete floor.“All because of two cowboys, two Russian mafia men, and some of the weirdest goons ever assembled in one place. All because of Bud. All because once, in another life, in another world, the only thing Hank wanted was to take third base—without getting caught.”
