Peter Dinklage is often considered one of the best actors working today. However, in recent years, the performer regularly shows up in some of the most surprising places. That could be as a huge dwarf in the Marvel Cinematic Universe or perhaps as the bad guy in a “Transformers” film. Hell, perhaps his most surprising role is in “The Toxic Avenger” (which really needs to get a distributor, come on). Now, he’s starring in a comedy, “Brothers,” opposite Josh Brolin.

As seen in the trailer, “Brothers” tells the story of a thief who needs to get his brother on board for one more score. That’s not the most interesting plot, as we’ve seen that play out a million times before. However, when you take into consideration everyone involved, “Brothers” looks like it could be one of the best comedies of the year.
The film stars Peter Dinklage, Josh Brolin, Glenn Close, Marisa Tomei, and Brendan Fraser. “Brothers” is directed by Max Barbakow, who is best known for working on the acclaimed comedy, “Palm Springs.”
“Brothers” is set to arrive on Prime Video on October 17. You can watch the trailer below.
Here’s the synopsis:
Brothers tells the story of a reformed criminal (Josh Brolin) whose attempt at going straight is derailed when he reunites with his sanity-testing twin brother (Peter Dinklage) on a cross-country road trip for the score of a lifetime. Dodging bullets, the law, and an overbearing mother along the way, they must heal their severed family bond before they end up killing each other.
