A family feud turns into a demolition job in paradise. And that’s the premise of Amazon MGM Studios’ “The Wrecking Crew,” the new action comedy that finally puts Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista on the same ride. Set in the streets of Hawaii, the film hinges on a simple premise: two men, built like tanks, carrying years of baggage, are forced to point their combined forces in the same direction.

The movie will premiere globally on Prime Video on January 28, 2026, and it stars Momoa as Jonny and Bautista as James, estranged half-brothers yanked back into each other’s lives after their father’s mysterious death. Whatever distance they’d built between them doesn’t matter anymore; answers do. As does survival.
Per the official synopsis, the brothers will reunite to uncover the truth, only to find that the past doesn’t just linger—it fights back. Buried secrets resurface, and loyalties are tested, widening their search into a conspiracy with the power to tear their family apart. The film’s promise sat right there in that escalation: a personal mystery that mutates into something bigger, uglier, and harder to outrun, especially when the only person you can trust is the one you’d rather not be standing next to.
Ángel Manuel Soto (the director of “Blue Beetle”) directs from a script by Jonathan Tropper, with producers including Jeff Fierson, Momoa, Bautista, Matt Reeves, and Lynn Harris. The supporting cast stacked the bench with Claes Bang, Temuera Morrison, Jacob Batalon, Frankie Adams, Miyavi, Stephen Root, and Morena Baccarin, giving the brothers plenty of potential allies, enemies, and wild cards as the situation spirals.
According to MGM, the project is framed as a long-anticipated collaboration between Momoa and Bautista—one designed to capitalize on their chemistry while maintaining an emotional undertone. The themes are spelled out cleanly: brotherhood, family, redemption, masculinity, and finally turning around to face the parts of your past you tried to leave behind.
