== Premise ==
Two professional fixers who prefer to work alone find themselves forced to work together after being hired for the same job.
== Cast ==
== Production ==
In September 2021, a studio bidding war began for a film package that included Jon Watts as writer and director, with George Clooney and Brad Pitt on board to star and produce via their respective production labels, Smokehouse Pictures and Plan B Entertainment. Wolfs reunites the two actors, who previously worked on the Ocean's trilogy (2001–2007) and Burn After Reading (2008). Apple TV+ acquired the rights to the film after winning the bidding war against studios including Amazon MGM Studios, Annapurna Pictures, Lionsgate, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Netflix, Sony Pictures (which would later take over theatrical distribution rights), Universal Pictures, and Warner Bros. Pictures. Additional cast members were revealed in 2023. Principal photography reportedly began in January 2023 in New York City, including the neighborhoods of Harlem and Chinatown. Larkin Seiple, who previously shot Watts' Cop Car (2015), was the cinematographer of the approximately 70-day shoot.
== Release ==
Following their partnership on Napoleon, Apple entered another agreement with Sony Pictures Releasing to distribute the film in cinemas. That same month, it was scheduled to be released in the United States on September 20, 2024. In July 2024, it was announced that the film would premiere out of competition at the 81st Venice International Film Festival. In August 2024, it was announced that Apple had decided to pivot from a wide release to a limited release on the same date, releasing it on Apple TV+ a week later on September 27.
== Future ==
A month prior to its release, it was confirmed that a sequel was already in the works, with Watts, Clooney and Pitt returning.
