Jamie Foxx & Michelle Monaghan Are 'Sleepless' In The First Trailer For The Action Thriller

There’s nothing better than a good ticking clock thriller, and “Sleepless” could be an early new year treat in that genre. It’s got a great cast, a helluva premise, and is based on the acclaimed French flick “Sleepless Night,” which lit up the festival circuit a few years back.

Jamie Foxx, Michelle Monaghan, Dermot Mulroney, Gabrielle Union, David Harbour, T.I., and Scoot McNairy star in the flick about an undercover cop who has one night to set things right after a heist goes bad, putting his son in immediate danger. Here’s the synopsis:

SLEEPLESS stars Jamie Foxx (Django Unchained, White House Down) as undercover Las Vegas police officer Vincent Downs, who is caught in a high stakes web of corrupt cops and the mob-controlled casino underground. When a heist goes wrong, a crew of homicidal gangsters kidnaps Downs’ teenage son. In one sleepless night he will have to rescue his son, evade an internal affairs investigation and bring the kidnappers to justice.

The only question mark with this one is Swiss director Baran bo Odar, who is making his Hollywood debut here, but here’s hoping he’s got the goods. “Sleepless” opens on February 24, 2017.
