Apple TV releases trailer for upcoming original film starring Chris Pratt

Apple TV today released the trailer for “Way of the Warrior Kid,” which premieres globally on the platform on November 25. Here are the details.

’Way of the Warrior Kid’ premieres November 25

Earlier this year, during its Apple TV Press Day event, Apple announced “Way of the Warrior Kid,” starring Chris Pratt (Guardians of the Galaxy), Linda Cardellini (Crystal Lake), and Jude Hill (Belfast).

The movie is based on Jocko Willink’s 2017 bestselling novel “Way of the Warrior Kid: From Wimpy to Warrior the Navy SEAL Way.” Willink, a former Navy SEAL himself, also stars in the movie, which is directed by McG (Terminator Salvation).

Here’s Apple’s synopsis of “Way of the Warrior Kid”:

Middle school has been a nightmare for Marc (Hill), a good kid who’s bullied by his classmates and feels like he’s behind in everything, from academics to P.E. to just making friends. That changes when his injured Uncle Jake (Pratt), a decorated Navy SEAL, comes to spend the summer and recuperate with Marc and his mom, Sarah (Cardellini). To help Marc defend himself, Jake devises an ambitious program he calls “Operation Warrior Kid” based on his SEAL training. Instead of teaching his nephew how to fight, Jake shows Marc what real courage is, facing down his own demons along the way.

With the November 25 premiere date fast approaching, Apple TV released the movie’s trailer today, which you can watch below:

November will also see the premieres of the second season of “Stick” on November 4, the culinary docuseries “Awkwafina: The Unlikely Cook” on November 6, and both the documentary “Being Heumann” and the thriller “12 12 12” on November 13.
