If you’ve ever watched a Michael Bay-directed film, you know the filmmaker has a very unique style. And by that, we mean that he emphasizes style over just about everything. Whether it’s flashy cars, pretty people, explosions, or oversaturated colors, there are plenty of hallmarks to a quality Bay film. According to star Ryan Reynolds, the upcoming “6 Underground” is the most Bay-iest one of them all.
Netflix is leaning into the humor of Reynolds, combined with the ridiculousness of Michael Bay films, with the new video showing the actor breaking down just how it’s been scientifically proven that “6 Underground” is the most Michael Bay film that has ever existed. As you might expect, Reynolds brings the laughs and does so at the expense of his director’s reputation. It’s pretty great.
Joining Reynolds in the cast are Mélanie Laurent (“Now You See Me”), Dave Franco (“Neighbors”), Ben Hardy (“Bohemian Rhapsody”), Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (“The Magnificent Seven”), and Corey Hawkins (“Straight Outta Compton”).
“6 Underground” arrives on Netflix on December 13.
Here’s the synopsis:
What’s the best part of being dead?
It isn’t escaping your boss, your ex, or even erasing your criminal record.
The best part about being dead…is the freedom.
The freedom to fight the injustice and evil that lurk in our world without anyone or anything to slow you down or tell you “no.”
6 Underground introduces a new kind of action hero. Six individuals from all around the globe, each the very best at what they do, have been chosen not only for their skill, but for a unique desire to delete their pasts to change the future. The team is brought together by an enigmatic leader (Ryan Reynolds), whose sole mission in life is to ensure that, while he and his fellow operatives will never be remembered, their actions damn sure will.
