Director Edgar Wright

Genre Action | Crime | Thriller

Cast Ansel Elgort, Kevin Spacey, Jamie Foxx, Jon Hamm

Rating R

Release Date June 28th, 2017

“After being coerced into working for a crime boss, a young getaway driver finds himself taking part in a heist doomed to fail.”

Written and directed by Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Hott Fuzz, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World), Baby Driver looks to be one heck of a fun getaway driver flick with a complicated love story.

The stellar cast includes Ansel Elgort, Kevin Spacey, Jamie Foxx, and Jon Bernthal. Check out the official trailers below!!

Ted Takes Fun Facts, Baby Driver:

  • Edgar Wright had been sitting on this idea for a film for many years. His first use of it was a music video he directed for British electronic duo Mint Royale and their track "Blue Song". The video stars Noel Fielding as a music-loving getaway driver for a group of bank robbers, one of whom is Wright's regular Nick Frost.
  • First Edgar Wright film to be shot in the United States.
  • When Edgar Wright wanted Ansel to be more stern in a shot he used the code words: "Man Driver!" He taught him the "Kubrick look" by showing Ansel a picture on his phone of Malcolm McDowell in character in A Clockwork Orange (1971).
