Aaron Eckhart is an action star with some serious acting chops. Prove me wrong but it\u2019ll be hard as the hard-working thespian has been putting his body through the ringer in several action pics as of late. From Classified to the Muzzle films, Eckhart brings some serious gravitas to his roles and now he\u2019s teaming up once again with one of the best in the action indie film business. Director, filmmaker and action maestro Jesse V. Johnson is back and he\u2019s delivering another bullet fused epic to put a notch in his filmography arsenal with Thieves Highway which stars Eckhart, who also was featured in Johnson\u2019s Chief of Station, as a lawman who must navigate an unforgiving terrain while battling the worse of the worse when it comes to criminals. Scroll below for the new footage!<\/p>\n

After a deadly confrontation, lawman Frank Bennett (Aaron Eckhart) uncovers a massive smuggling ring. Cut off from cell service and stranded without his truck, Frank is forced to take on a dangerous gang led by a deranged ex-military commander. Stopping them before they reach the border isn\u2019t just his duty, it\u2019s his only shot at survival.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Going up against Eckhart with guns a-blazing is tier one genre actor Devon Sawa who plays evil just as good as righteous and here, he looks to be channeling the devil himself. Lochlyn Munro,\u00a0Darin Cooper, and\u00a0Lucy Martin also star with Travis Mills penning the script from a story by Mills & J.D. Pepper.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m going to be honest and say that I love what Eckhart is doing for the sake of action cinema and when you have a great actor who can carry the theatrics along with the stunts, then you really have something special. Johnson is one of the best in the biz and shooting crime thrillers that harvest a dark energy about them and with action sequences that are always thrilling, violent and chaotic, he definitely deserves all the accolades awarded to him. <\/p>\n

\u00a0Vertical will unleash Thieves Highway\u00a0in select U.S. theaters on\u00a0December 12th, 2025,\u00a0with a Digital & VOD debut arriving shortly after on\u00a0December 16th!<\/p>\n
