Review | Crime 101 (2026) Sony Pictures

Chris Hemsworth leads a glorious all-star cast in the nail-biting second trailer for the slick, sexy heist movie, Crime 101.

With just one month until release, Sony Pictures has shared a nail-bitingly tense new trailer for the slick, sexy crime thriller CRIME 101. The sleek heist movie features an all-star ensemble cast including Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Barry Keoghan, Monica Barbaro, Corey Hawkins, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Nick Nolte, and Halle Berry. It will hit cinema screens on February 13

To date, the studio has shared an edgy first trailer and an eye-opening behind-the-scenes featurette that has peeled back the curtain and given a taste of what we can expect from the film. But the latest trailer takes the criminal rulebook and throws it out of the window. It reveals Chris Hemsworth’s seemingly uncatchable thief planning the heist of the century. But with Mark Ruffalo’s dedicated cop, Lt. Lubesnik, breathing down his neck and an impromptu partner in crime in Halle Berry’s disillusioned insurance broker double-dealing, can the master thief get away scot-free once again? Or will this heist be his last? Check out the trailer below.

SYNOPSIS

In the twisty, stylish crime thriller CRIME 101, Davis (Chris Hemsworth) is an elusive thief whose high-stakes heists have mystified police. He’s planning his biggest ever score — hoping it’ll be his last — when his path collides with Sharon (Halle Berry), a disillusioned insurance executive whom he’s forced to work with, and Orman (Barry Keoghan), a rival thief with far more disturbing methods than Davis’s. As the multi-million dollar heist approaches, relentless detective Lt. Lubesnik (Mark Ruffalo) closes in on the operation, raising the stakes even higher, and the line between hunter and hunted starts to blur. Each of them is soon forced to confront the cost of their respective choices — and the realisation that there’s no turning back. CRIME 101 is written and directed by Bart Layton (American Animals, The Imposter).
