A new trailer has dropped for “Mayday,” the upcoming action-comedy film starring Hollywood heavyweights Ryan Reynolds and Kenneth Branagh. Set to premiere on Apple TV+ on September 4, 2026, the movie promises a genre-bending, action-packed ride with a healthy dose of buddy comedy and thriller elements. The plot centers around hotshot U.S.
Navy pilot Lieutenant Troy “Assassin” Kelly, played by Ryan Reynolds.
Kelly finds himself in deep trouble when a top-secret mission into Russian territory during the height of the Cold War goes awry, leaving him stranded behind enemy lines. His unexpected salvation comes in the form of Nikolai Ustinov, a gruff ex-KGB agent portrayed by Kenneth Branagh, who surprisingly harbors a soft spot for American culture.
What initially seems like an impossible situation, with Troy fearing the worst, soon unfolds into an unlikely alliance. The film explores whether this mismatched duo can navigate the dangerous political landscape and form a bond strong enough to facilitate Troy's rescue. Joining Reynolds and Branagh in the cast are Marcin Doroncinski, Maria Bakalova, and David Morse, promising a strong ensemble.
