The trailer shows the gang, made up of Benny (Austin Butler) and Johnny (Tom Hardy), eventually getting involved in criminal activity and shows the violence that follows. The clip also features Mike Feist (West Side Story) playing a fictionalized version of Danny Lyon, the photographer who immortalized 1960s bikers and inspired the film’s characters with his book. In a metaphorical nod to Lyon’s biker life, Feist interviews Katie, Benny’s wife, about her relationship with the gang.
