Joseph Gordon-Levitt's 'Premium Rush' second trailer released - watch

A new trailer for Joseph Gordon-Levitt's upcoming thriller Premium Rush has been released.

Premium Rush tells the story of a bike messenger who finds himself in danger after picking up a lethal package. It stars Gordon-Levitt alongside Michael Shannon and Jamie Chung.


The trailer, posted by Yahoo Movies, features more scenes than the first trailer between Gordon Levitt and Shannon, who plays a dirty cop in the film.

Gordon-Levitt suffered an injury requiring 31 stitches while shooting one of the film's action scenes in August 2010.

He has said that he thinks of the film as a "bicycle action movie", adding: "I just think it's kind of a brilliant idea. It's a summer popcorn action movie. Instead of glorifying cars and guns, it glorifies bicycles. I think that's great."

Premium Rush is out in cinemas on August 24 in the US and on September 14 in the UK.
