The Bikeriders Trailer: Austin Butler Rides Out In Jeff Nichols Biker Drama

While it was revving up for award season late last year, Midnight Special writer/director Jeff Nichols' new offering The Bikeriders was parked by Disney's 20th Century Studios in the midst of the actors' strike. Universal and Focus Features offered the film a spot on the back of its seat, and what better time to relaunch the promotional campaign for a film starring Austin Butler than ahead of his much-buzzed-about role as Feyd-Rautha in Dune: Part Two? Check out the new trailer below:

With Nichols drawing inspiration from a book of photographs by Danny Lyons, The Bikeriders is also anchored by Tom Hardy and Jodie Comer in the story of the brooding Benny (Butler), who joins a rough-and-ready motorcycle gang called The Vandals.

Led by Hardy's scruffy, hard-driving Johnny, we'll see how the gang rose to prominence, dishing out vengeance and rough justice to those who get in their way, all while Kathy grapples with Benny's commitment to the Vandals, and the effect it has on their lives.

With Michael Shannon, Mike Faist and Norman Reedus also in the cast, The Bikeriders will roar into UK cinemas on 21 June.
