It’s only a matter of weeks until Netflix assembles an Army of Thieves for its new thriller, and a new trailer gives us a closer look at the prequel to Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead.

The film sees small-town bank teller Ludwig Dieter get drawn into the adventure of a lifetime when a woman recruits him to join a crew of Interpol’s most wanted criminals, attempting to heist a sequence of legendary, impossible-to-crack safes across Europe.

He is joined by Nathalie Emmanuel (Game of Thrones) as Gwendoline, Ruby O Fee as Korina, Stuart Martin as Brad Cage, Guz Khan as Rolph, Jonathan Cohen as Delacroix and Noémie Nakai as Beatrix.
