With a summer release imminent, Sony has released, thanks to IMDb, a brand new look at their upcoming comedy, 30 MINUTES OR LESS, from ZOMBIELAND director Ruben Fleischer.

The film stars Jesse Eisenberg, Aziz Ansari, Danny McBride, Nick Swardson, and Michael Pena, and is backed by a Black Listed screenplay, penned by Michael Diliberti and Matthew Sullivan. 

30 MINUTES follows the story of two criminals who take a pizza delivery guy hostage and force him, by strapping a bomb to him, to rob a bank in 30 minutes. Swardson and McBride play the criminals, with Eisenberg taking on the role of the delivery driver, and Ansari as his history teacher right-hand man. Pena will play a gangster who ultimately plays a foil to this whole project, and from there, surely hijinks ensue. 

The new photos that Sony has released look really fantastic. I’m a fan of everyone involved here, but while that creative team does sound great, it may not make for a perfect film (YOUR HIGHNESS is a perfect example of that). That said, the look of these photos is really top-notch, and what’s better than Danny McBride wielding a crossbow? Find me something that’s better than that.
