Latest Free Guy trailer is giving us strong Upload vibes

Ryan Reynolds discovers he is a background player in a video game in the epic adventure-comedy Free Guy.

20th Century Studios has dropped a new trailer for Free Guy, the sci-fi comedy starring Ryan Reynolds, currently slated for a December 11 release. But in these pandemic times, all release dates are basically pencilled in until further notice-which is why Reynolds and company also released an amusing teaser in which they debate potential alternate dates for the film's release.

Per the official premise: "A bank teller who discovers he is actually a background player in an open-world video game decides to become the hero of his own story... one he rewrites himself. Now in a world where there are no limits, he is determined to be the guy who saves his world his way... before it is too late."

Tonally, the trailer feels like a live-action Wreck-It Ralph with dashes of The Matrix and the Deadpool movies thrown in for good measure. In fact, the new trailer is giving us strong Upload vibes, which can only be a good thing, since Upload was one of our fave new series this year.
