What happens

Bullet Train is a 2022 American action comedy film directed by David Leitch. Based on the 2010 Japanese novel by Kōtarō Isaka, it centers around a group of assassins on a Japanese high-speed train who end up in conflict with each other. The ensemble cast consists of Brad Pitt, Joey King, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Brian Tyree Henry, Andrew Koji, Hiroyuki Sanada, Michael Shannon, Bad Bunny, and Sandra Bullock. Principal photography began in Los Angeles in November 2020 and concluded in March 2021 amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Bullet Train premiered in Paris on July 18, 2022, and was theatrically released in the United States on August 5. The film received mixed reviews from critics and sparked a whitewashing controversy over its predominantly non-Japanese cast in a Japanese-set novel adaptation. It grossed $239 million on a production budget of $86–90 million. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
