Kevin Bacon Stars in COP CAR, Heading to Theaters Aug 7

by Movies News Desk Jul. 22, 2015

Kevin Bacon (THE FOLLOWING, HBO's TAKING CHANCE, MYSTIC RIVER) stars in director Jon Watts' delightful throwback thriller COP CAR, slated to hit theaters on August 7th.

When two good-natured but rebellious young boys (Hays Wellford of INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE and James Freedson-Jackson) stumble across an abandoned COP CAR hidden in a secluded glade they decide to take it for a quick joyride. Their bad decision unleashes the ire of the county sheriff (Kevin Bacon) and leads to brutal consequences.

Also in the cast are Shea Whigham, Camryn Manheim, James Freedson-Jackson and Hays Welford.

COP CAR firmly establishes Jon Watts as a master of minimalist suspense and a directing force that will soon extend well beyond the independent landscape -- Watts has just signed on to helm the UNTITLED SPIDER-MAN REBOOT for 2017.
