Captain America star Frank Grillo has a crazed hitman in the form of Gerard Butler on his tail in the first trailer for Copshop.
Heading to the big screen next month, this Joe Carnahan-directed actioner looks both funny and adrenaline-inducing, with strong characters ready to lay down some violence.

The official synopsis for Copshop reads: "Screaming through the Nevada desert in a bullet-ridden Crown Vic, wily con artist Teddy Murretto (played by Grillo) hatches a desperate plan to hide out from lethal hitman Bob Viddick (Butler).
"He sucker-punches rookie officer Valerie Young (Alexis Louder) to get himself arrested and locked up in a small-town police station. But jail can't protect Murretto for long.
"Viddick schemes his own way into detention, biding his time in a nearby cell until he can complete his mission. When the arrival of a competing assassin (Toby Huss) ignites all-out mayhem, mounting threats force Viddick to get creative if he wants to finish the job and escape the explosive situation."

This one reunites Grillo with director Carnahan once again after the time-looping Boss Level and survival thriller The Grey.
Butler most recently turned up as John Garrity in disaster movie Greenland.
Copshop comes to cinemas on Friday, September 10.
