🎬 BULLET TRAIN (2025) — THE SECOND EXPLOSION ON THE RAILWAY OF DEATH
🚄 The return of assassin “Ladybug” – Brad Pitt
Three years after the resounding success of Bullet Train (2022), director David Leitch and producer Kelly McCormick officially reunited with Brad Pitt in the sequel: “Bullet Train (2025)”.
The film is expected to be a “comprehensive upgrade” – from the action pace, the scale of the story, to the black comedy elements typical of this brand.
In the new part, Ladybug (Brad Pitt) returns to the world of assassins after thinking he had washed his hands of the sword. But a “simple” mission in Europe quickly turns into a high-speed nightmare — when the high-speed train through Berlin – Prague – Vienna becomes a battlefield between global assassins.
💥 Main content
According to sources from Sony Pictures, Bullet Train (2025) will expand the underground world introduced in the first part. After the events in Japan, Ladybug is pursued by a mysterious organization called The Consortium – a group of international assassins who manipulate murder contracts around the world.
When an important evidence is transported on an express train across Europe, Ladybug is pulled into the final mission – to both survive and prevent a massacre that could explode among hundreds of innocent passengers.
Alongside Brad Pitt, Joey King returns as “Prince” – this time as the main controller behind the shadows, with a much larger role and a completely different character line: cold, sharp and ruthless.

🎞 Official Trailer
The trailer opens with Brad Pitt boarding a bullet train in the middle of the night in Berlin, blood all over his shirt but his eyes still calm. The film’s pace explodes with a series of close-quarters action scenes, chases in the train compartment, and daring explosions shot entirely with IMAX Digital technology.
The music in the trailer is mixed with the background of “Another One Bites The Dust” (Queen) — recalling the style of the first part’s blend of violence and black comedy.

Style: keeps the action – black comedy Tarantino style, combined with more psychological elements about Ladybug’s past.
Scale: filmed in Berlin, Prague, and Budapest – promises to expand “death rail” to Europe.
Realistic action: Brad Pitt performed more than 80% of the action himself – according to Leitch, “he actually fought on a real speeding train”.
🧨 Expectations & Release Date
Bullet Train (2025) is expected to be released in summer 2025, distributed globally by Sony Pictures Entertainment.
The film is considered one of the biggest action blockbusters of the year, promising to continue the “neon noir” style and black comedy that made director Leitch famous after John Wick and Atomic Blonde.
