First Trailer for PREMIUM RUSH starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Joseph Gordon-Levitt? Michael Shannon? Count me in. These two face off against each other in this new action/thriller Premium Rush directed by David Koepp (Ghost Town). Also starring Jamie Chung, Dania Ramirez, and Aasif Mandvi from The Daily Show, the film focuses on a New York bicycle messenger named Wilee (played by Gordon-Levitt) who's routine delivery turns into a situation that may end up being more than he's ever bargained for. I'm loving what I see in the trailer, and at first I had an urge to give this whole biking thing a try. But I remembered that I like to live life without...well...dying. A link to the trailer will be posted after the break.
Premium Rush Trailer


Dodging speeding cars, crazed cabbies, open doors, and eight million cranky pedestrians is all in a day’s work for Wilee, the best of New York’s agile and aggressive bicycle messengers. It takes a special breed to ride the fixie — super lightweight, single-gear bikes with no brakes and riders who are equal part skilled cyclists and suicidal nutcases who risk becoming a smear on the pavement every time they head into traffic.
But a guy who’s used to putting his life on the line is about to get more than even he is used to when a routine delivery turns into a life or death chase through the streets of Manhattan. When Wilee picks up his last envelope of the day on a premium rush run, he discovers this package is different. This time, someone is actually trying to kill him.
