On Sunday, June 27, Amazon MGM Studios hosted the Red Carpet World Premiere of the new action-comedy THE PICKUP at Regal LA Live in Los Angeles. Guests were treated to a screening of the film followed by an afterparty at Hotel Figueroa.
Attendees included THE PICKUP director and producer Tim Story and stars Eddie Murphy, Pete Davidson and Keke Palmer as well as the film’s writers Matt Mider & Kevin Burrows and producers Charisse Hewitt-Webster and John Fox.
Special guests included Vivica A. Fox, Aldis Hodge, Skai Jackson, Da’vine Joy Randolph, Daniella Monet, Sugar Ray Leonard, Jharrel Jerome, Colleen Reed and Chris Seeley.
In the action-comedy The Pickup, a routine cash pickup takes a wild turn when two mismatched armored truck drivers, Russell (Eddie Murphy) and Travis (Pete Davidson), are ambushed by ruthless criminals led by a savvy mastermind, Zoe (Keke Palmer), with plans that go way beyond the cash cargo. As chaos unfolds around them, the unlikely duo must navigate high-risk danger, clashing personalities, and one very bad day that keeps getting worse.
