Shane Black’s Play Dirty Trailer Released for October Prime Video Premiere

Prime Video is set to release "Play Dirty," an action thriller directed and co-written by Shane Black, on October 1. The film stars Mark Wahlberg as Parker, an expert thief who, along with his crew, takes on a high-stakes heist involving the New York mob and a South American dictator, based on Donald E. Westlake's Parker novels. The cast also includes LaKeith Stanfield, Rosa Salazar, Keegan-Michael Key, and Tony Shalhoub, among others. "Play Dirty" marks the latest cinematic portrayal of the Parker character, previously played by actors like Lee Marvin, Mel Gibson, and Jason Statham. The screenplay was co-written by Black, Charles Mondry, and Anthony Bagarozzi, with Robert Downey Jr. attached as an executive producer and original potential lead. This film represents Black’s return to directing after his 2018 film "The Predator," and fans hope it recaptures the sharp wit and style of his earlier works like "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" and "The Nice Guys."
