Three-time Academy Award® nominee Tom Cruise ("Magnolia," "Jerry
Maguire," "Born on the Fourth of July"), Jamie Foxx ("Ali," "Any
Given Sunday") and Jada Pinkett Smith ("The Matrix Reloaded," "The
Matrix Revolutions") star in the thriller "Collateral," under the
direction of three-time Academy Award® nominee Michael Mann ("The
Insider").
Max (Jamie Foxx) has lived the mundane life of a cab driver for 12
years. The faces have come and gone from his rearview mirror,
people and places he's long since forgotten...until tonight.
Vincent (Tom Cruise) is a contract killer. When an offshore
narcotrafficking cartel learns they're about to be indicted by a
federal grand jury, they mount an operation to identify and kill
the key witnesses, and the last stage is tonight. Tonight, Vincent
arrived in L.A...and five bodies are supposed to fall.
Circumstances cause Vincent to hijack Max's taxicab, and Max
becomes collateral-an expendable person in the wrong place at the
wrong time. Through the night Vincent forces Max to drive him to
each assigned destination. And as the LAPD and FBI race to
intercept them, Max and Vincent's survival becomes dependent on
each other in ways neither would have imagined.
Jada Pinkett Smith stars as United States Attorney Annie Farrell.
Rounding out the main cast are Mark Ruffalo ("In the Cut"), Peter
Berg ("Cop Land"), Oscar® nominee Javier Bardem ("Before Night
Falls") and Bruce McGill ("Runaway Jury").
