Netflix has unveiled the official teaser trailer of its upcoming film The Takedown (Loin du périph), which stars Lupin staple Omar Sy and François Monge.

The forthcoming action-comedy is set to premiere May 6 and will follow Sy and Monge as police officers who are the complete opposite, and get paired together to uncover an unexpectedly big criminal case:

“Ousmane Diakité (Omar Sy) and François Monge (Laurent Lafitte) are two cops with very different styles, backgrounds and careers. The unlikely pair are reunited once again for a new investigation that takes them across France. What seemed to be a simple drug deal turns out to be a high scale criminal case wrapped in danger and unexpected comedy.”

The film is helmed by Lupin and Now You See Me’s Louis Leterrier, written by Stéphane Kazandjian and produced by Eric Altmayer, Nicolas Altmayer. Also joining Sy and Monge in the cast are Laurent Lafitte and Izïa Higelin.

Watch the teaser trailer above. The Takedown (Loin du périph) premieres May 6 on Netflix.
