The Pickup OTT Release Date: If you＊re someone who loves a good heist flick with loads of action, comedy, and a solid mix of chaos and charm, August 6 is your date. That＊s when The Pickup, a fresh, fast-paced heist comedy starring Eddie Murphy, Keke Palmer, and Pete Davidson, drops on Amazon Prime Video. So get the popcorn ready because this isn＊t your average armoured-truck robbery.
What is The Pickup all about?
The story kicks off with two completely mismatched armoured truck drivers, Russell (Eddie) and Travis (Pete). They＊re just going about what seems like a boring, routine cash pickup job. But their day takes a wild turn when a clever and dangerous crew of thieves led by Zoe (Keke) ambushes them. What starts as a simple job turns into a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game full of unexpected twists.
Meet the cast and crew of The Pickup
The Pickup is directed by Tim Story, who＊s no stranger to mixing action with comedy. He＊s the guy behind hits like Barbershop and Ride Along, and he brings that same high-energy, slick direction here. The script comes from Kevin Burrows and Matt Mider. Oh, and yes, Eddie Murphy also steps in as one of the producers, along with Tim Story himself and a few others.
Now, this isn＊t a two-man show. The film has a pretty loaded cast. Apart from Murphy, Davidson, and Palmer, you＊ve got Eva Longoria, Jack Kesy, NFL legend Marshawn Lynch, WWE superstar Roman Reigns (a.k.a. Joe Anoa＊i), Andrew Dice Clay, and Ismael Cruz C車rdova.
Filming mostly took place in Atlanta, but the shoot didn＊t go without a hiccup. There was a scary moment during a second-unit action sequence involving an armoured truck and a car crash, which left a few crew members injured. Thankfully, none of the main cast was involved, and the team took immediate steps to address safety on set after the incident.
