Get ready for chaos, comedy, and a whole lot of cash—Amazon Studios has released the official trailer for The Pickup, a high-stakes heist comedy starring Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson. The film promises fast cars, con jobs, and enough unexpected twists to keep your popcorn airborne.

💼 What’s The Pickup About?
The trailer introduces Pete Davidson as a loveably awkward delivery driver who gets caught up in a world of crime, cons, and covert ops after falling for a mysterious woman. One accidental encounter leads him into the orbit of Eddie Murphy’s character—a smooth-talking, gun-toting criminal mastermind with his sights set on one last big score.
Set against the backdrop of a major heist disguised as a logistics run, The Pickup plays with genre conventions in all the best ways. Think Ocean’s Eleven meets Pineapple Express with a dash of True Lies chaos.
🧨 Eddie Murphy Is in Full Form
Eddie Murphy brings his signature charm and rapid-fire delivery, but this time with a sharper edge. Whether he’s bluffing his way through a security checkpoint or teaching Davidson the rules of crime with the flair of a seasoned showman, Murphy looks like he’s having a blast—and it’s infectious.
In one standout moment from the trailer, Murphy coolly tells a gun-wielding henchman:
“You can shoot me, sure. But then who's gonna explain that to your boss?”
😂 Pete Davidson’s Perfectly Out of His Depth
Davidson plays the accidental everyman—a role he’s mastered—thrown headfirst into a world of espionage and double-crosses. His comic timing and underdog energy serve as the heart of the film, balancing Murphy’s veteran presence with frantic Gen-Z panic.
From fumbling gun disarms to questioning whether he’s in a real heist or just “a weird Uber situation,” Davidson delivers laugh-out-loud moments without slowing the pace.
💣 Action Meets Absurdity
The trailer teases a stylish mix of:
High-speed chases
Explosive warehouse standoffs
Disguises gone wrong
A mission that’s constantly one misstep from disaster
It’s clear The Pickup doesn’t take itself too seriously—but the production value, sharp writing, and charismatic leads make it more than just a throwaway caper.
