The Machine

Sony Pictures Entertainment on Thursday late at night unveiled the official trailer of its upcoming comedy action film The Machine. Helmed by Peter Atencio, the film is inspired by the 2016 stand-up routine of the same name by Bert Kreischer, who starred as a fictionalised version of himself in the lead role alongside Mark Hamill, Jess Gabor, Jimmy Tatro, Stephanie Kurtzuba and Mercedes De La Cruz.

In the two-minute-24-second-long trailer, we see Bert Kreischer hosting a party after the success of his stand-up comedy gig. His father (Hamill) attends the party with the aim to embarrass him. But both of them are kidnapped by Georgia, Bert’s daughter, who was wronged 20 years ago by Bert while drunk on a college semester abroad in Russia.

The Machine is scheduled to be released on May 26.
