Shaun Of The Dead and Scott Pilgrim’s Edgar Wright has been working on Baby Driver for a long time. However, he put it on hold while working on Marvel’s Ant Man, but after his somewhat abrupt departure from that project, he went back to it. However, it’s only now we’re getting out first look with a couple of pic via EW.
It’s something a bit different from Wright, of which the director says, “I always wanted to do an action movie that was powered by music. It’s something that’s very much a part of my previous films and I thought of this idea of how to take that a stage further by having a character who listens to music the entire time. So, you have this young getaway driver who has to soundtrack his entire existence, particularly the bank robberies and fast getaways that come afterwards.”
The film stars Ansel Elgort as a young man who gets coerced into being a getaway driver, but finds himself part of a heist that seems doomed to epic failure. Jamie Foxx, Jon Hamm, Elsa Gonzalez, Kevin Spacey, and Jon Bernthal also star.
It’ll be in cinemas next summer. Take a look at the first pics above and below.
