Nicholas Hoult has a type: characters who shouldn't be trusted with a wallet. From the disastrous fine dining in The Menu to his corporate scheming as Lex Luthor, he's now trading boardrooms for bank vaults in How to Rob a Bank. This time, he's not just after a bigger paycheck—he's after the whole cash drawer.
But subtlety isn't in the job description. The film follows a crew that livestreams its heists, turning crime into a spectator sport. They're not just robbing banks; they're teaching the world how to do it. With David Leitch—the maestro behind Bullet Train and The Fall Guy—directing, you know the getaway will be anything but quiet. Collider is thrilled to debut an exclusive sneak peek from the film, titled "The System Is Corrupt," which you can watch above.
The cast is a who's who of talent: Hoult leads alongside Zoë Kravitz, Anna Sawai, Pete Davidson, Rhenzy Feliz, Christian Slater, and John C. Reilly. In our exclusive clip, Kravitz and Reilly are piecing together the crew's very public crime spree. Reilly's character poses a fair question: after 15 successful heists, why keep pushing your luck? But Kravitz sees a different motive—this isn't about the money; it's about making a statement against a corrupt system.
That public profile comes with a price. The crew's online fame attracts the attention of a veteran FBI agent and a sharp software engineer, both determined to shut them down. Instead of lying low, the robbers double down, planning their most audacious job yet. It's a classic Leitch setup: characters whose confidence far outlasts their common sense.
For fans of brutal action movies, this one promises plenty of thrills. And if you're in the mood for more heist-style tension, you might also enjoy Harlan Coben's Safe, another tale of secrets and danger.
Collider is also hosting an early screening of How to Rob a Bank on November 11—you can win tickets here. The film opens in theaters November 13, so mark your calendars for a wild ride.
