Director:

Trailer:
The trailer of the film was released by Ryan Reynolds October 1 and it featured some great stunt work. However, the story lies in the equation between the six billionaires-turned-vigilantes who are out to do some good in the world after having erased their memories from the past.
One leads the other five members into different situations of various levels of danger. It is unclear if he is even qualified to be doing all the things he is doing in the trailer which includes facing a grenade and coming out unscathed, though definitely scared. Each member seems invested in this idea of doing good for the world, and it will be interesting to see how things pan out.
