Drumming up buzz for “Empire State,” a new trailer for the action drama was released on Wednesday (June 19).

Featuring a bruised up Liam Hemsworth**, the movie follows two childhood friends who plan to rob an armored car depository, and the NYPD officer who stands in their way.

Directed by Dito Montiel, the film also stars Dwayne Johnson, Emma Roberts, Nikki Reed, and Shenae Grimes.

“Empire State” made its debut in March at the Gasparilla International Film Festival, and is expected to hit theaters later this year.
