IGN.com has debuted the official red-band trailer of FilmDistrict’s “Drive,” starring Ryan Gosling and Carey Mulligan. The trailer can be viewed here.

The film, directed by Nicolas Winding Refn, is a tight action triller about a stunt driver who wheels getaway cars in his off time:

Ryan Gosling stars as a Los Angeles wheelman for hire, stunt driving for movie productions by day and steering getaway vehicles for armed heists by night. Though a loner by nature, Driver can’t help falling in love with his beautiful neighbor Irene (Carey Mulligan), a vulnerable young mother dragged into a dangerous underworld by the return of her ex-convict husband Standard (Oscar Isaac).

After a heist intended to pay off Standard’s protection money spins unpredictably out of control, Driver finds himself driving defense for the girl he loves, tailgated by a syndicate of deadly serious criminals (Albert Brooks and Ron Perlman). But when he realizes that the gangsters are after more than the bag of cash in his trunk-that they’re coming straight for Irene and her son-Driver is forced to shift gears and go on offense.

Also starring in the film are Bryan Cranston, Christina Hendricks, Ron Perlman, with Oscar Isaac and Albert Brooks. “Drive” will be available in theaters September 16.

Below is the trailer as well as some stills from the film. To learn more about the film visit FilmDistrict on Facebook and Twitter.
