Prime Video has unveiled the first trailer for 'The Wrecking Crew,' an action comedy starring Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista as estranged half-brothers seeking revenge. The film follows their reunion after their father's mysterious death, leading to battles against the Yakuza. It streams on the platform starting January 28.

The trailer for 'The Wrecking Crew,' released on January 8, 2026, introduces Jason Momoa as Jonny and Dave Bautista as James, two half-brothers forced to reunite following their father's enigmatic demise. As they investigate, they unearth buried secrets and confront a conspiracy threatening their family, clashing with Yakuza assassins in high-stakes action sequences.

Directed by Ángel Manuel Soto, known for helming one of DC's more underrated films, the movie features a script by Jonathan Tropper. Producers include the stars themselves—Bautista and Momoa—alongside Jeff Fierson, Matt Reeves, and Lynn Harris. The ensemble cast comprises Claes Bang, Temuera Morrison, Jacob Batalon, Frankie Adams, Miyavi, Stephen Root, and Morena Baccarin.

Trailer highlights include intense Yakuza fights, freeway car chases, and chaotic gun battles. In a standout exchange, Stephen Root's character warns Bautista's James: “I guarantee you’ll end up poking a bear that doesn’t want to be poked.” James retorts, “Take my word for it when I tell you that I’m the bear.”

Momoa, famed for Aquaman in the pre-James Gunn DC Universe, recently appeared in Warner Bros.' $950 million box-office success 'A Minecraft Movie,' as well as 'The Trainer,' 'Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom,' and 'Fast X.' Bautista, who rose to prominence as Drax in the 'Guardians of the Galaxy' series, has upcoming roles in 'Trap House,' 'Afterburn,' 'The Naked Gun,' and 'In the Lost Lands.'

'The Wrecking Crew' promises over-the-top action comedy, blending the actors' bickering brother dynamic with explosive set pieces, arriving on Prime Video on January 28.
