Prepare for a dose of laughter and action with ‘Brothers,’ the upcoming Amazon MGM Studios action comedy starring Josh Brolin and Peter Dinklage. Brolin and Dinklage portray twin brothers hailing from a family with a long line of criminals. Moke (Brolin), seeking to escape his past, finds himself drawn back into the criminal world by his brother Jady (Dinklage) for a heist involving valuable emeralds. The official synopsis teases a whirlwind adventure: “Dodging bullets, the law, and an overbearing mother along the way, they must heal their severed family bond before they end up killing each other.”
Get ready for a wild cross-country road trip as the brothers embark on their mission, fueled by witty banter and chaotic escapades. ‘Brothers’ boasts a stellar ensemble cast, including Taylour Paige, Marisa Tomei, M. Emmet Walsh, Jennifer Landon, Brendan Fraser, and Glenn Close, all adding their unique flair to the film.
Max Barbakow, known for his work on Hulu’s ‘Palm Springs,’ directs the film from a screenplay by Macon Blair, based on a story by Etan Cohen. Behind the scenes, the production was a haven for playful energy, with the cast embracing the comedic spirit. Barbakow, in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, described the set as a place where silliness and fun reigned supreme. “In between setups, Josh somehow commandeered a techno crane and chased Peter around with it, wearing a pink wig, voguing for the camera,” Barbakow shared. “Glenn was so surprising in terms of how willing she was to try things, make a fool of herself, and go there. I think she mooned all of us at a certain point. It was remarkable.”
Mark your calendars! ‘Brothers’ hits select theaters on October 10, followed by a streaming debut on Prime Video on October 17. Get ready for a wild, laughter-filled ride with this unique heist comedy.
