Mark Wahlberg Leads a Crew of Crooks in Explosive Heist Thriller Play Dirty

Prime Video just dropped the official trailer for Play Dirty, and it looks like we’re in for a wild, bullet-riddled ride through New York City’s criminal underworld. Directed by Shane Black (of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and The Nice Guys fame), this slick action thriller follows Parker—played by Mark Wahlberg—a seasoned thief gearing up for the biggest score of his life.

 

But this isn’t your typical “break into the vault” kind of heist. Parker and his tight-knit crew—including LaKeith Stanfield as Grofield, Rosa Salazar as the enigmatic Zen, and Keegan-Michael Key in what looks like a scene-stealing role—aren’t just going after money. They’re going after the mob’s money. And not just any money—legendary, sunken treasure that’s just resurfaced and is about to make landfall in the Big Apple.

 

The trailer teases high-speed chases, explosive confrontations, and witty banter—all Shane Black trademarks—alongside a gritty, noir-inspired aesthetic. With mobsters, double-crosses, and enough firepower to light up Manhattan, Play Dirty promises the kind of clever, twisty heist story that fans of the Ocean’s franchise and Heat will devour.

 

Backing Wahlberg is a star-studded supporting cast, including Chukwudi Iwuji, Nat Wolff, Thomas Jane, and Tony Shalhoub. Together, they round out a crew of criminals, insiders, and enemies that make the stakes even higher—and the betrayals even juicier. The film is based on the iconic Parker book series by Donald E. Westlake, with a screenplay co-written by Shane Black, Charles Mondry, and Anthony Bagarozzi.

 

Set for release on October 1, 2025, Play Dirty is shaping up to be Prime Video’s next big action hit. It’s got brains, bullets, and Mark Wahlberg in full heist mode—what more could you ask for?
