Amazon MGM Studios announced the release date for How to Rob a Bank, a crime action thriller from director David Leitch starring Pete Davidson and Nicholas Hoult.
When is the release date for How to Rob a Bank?
Per Deadline, How to Rob a Bank scored a Labor Day weekend release and will hit theaters on September 4, 2026.
How to Rob a Bank stars Davidson, Hoult, and Emmy winner Anna Sawai as bank robbers who share their heists on social media while eluding the police.
Leitch will direct from a screenplay by executive producer Mark Bianculli. Leitch and his wife, Kelly McCormick, will produce through their 87 North banner alongside Imagine Entertainment. Additional producers include Brian Grazer, Jeb Brody, and Allan Mandelbaum.
How to Rob a Bank is Leitch's first movie since 2024's The Fall Guy, an action comedy starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt. The Fall Guy focused on a stuntman (Gosling) who must find the missing lead actor (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) of a major Hollywood production being directed by his ex-girlfriend (Blunt). Despite its underperformance at the box office, The Fall Guy received mostly positive reviews and praise for its action sequences.
Because of his experience as a stunt coordinator, How to Rob a Bank will likely include intricate and highly choreographed action sequences. These stunts have become staples in Leitch's previous movies, including Bullet Train, Hobbs & Shaw, Deadpool 2, and Atomic Blonde.
Davidson recently appeared in Riff Raff, a crime comedy starring Jennifer Coolidge and Bill Murray, and Dog Man, an animated superhero comedy. Davidson recently wrapped production on another heist movie, The Pickup, starring Eddie Murphy.
Hoult is coming off a strong 2024, with starring roles in The Garfield Movie, The Order, Juror #2, and Nosferatu. Hoult will play Lex Luthor this summer in James Gunn's Superman.

Harvey Weinstein Says He Has ‘Regrets' and ‘Acted Immorally' Ahead of New York Retrial Verdict: ‘But Never Illegal, Never Criminal'
Harvey Weinstein gave a rare interview as he awaits the verdict in his New York sex crimes retrial, saying that he has 'regrets' that he 'acted immorally' but claiming that it was 'never illegal.' In an exclusive phone conversation on Fox 5's 'Good Day New York,' anchor Rosanna Scotto asked the former Hollywood producer and convicted sex offender what he thought of the women who had testified against him, and if he has any regrets. 'I think Arthur said they had 4 million reasons to testify, as in dollars,' Weinstein said, referring to his lawyer Arthur Aidala. More from Variety Harvey Weinstein's New York Retrial Closes With Prosecutors Urging Jury to 'Let Him Know the Rules Apply to Him' Ahead of Deliberations Harvey Weinstein Was the 'One Being Abused,' Defense Says in Retrial Closing Argument; Prosecution Calls Him 'No Victim' Harvey Weinstein Doesn't Plan to Testify at New York Retrial 'I have regrets that I put my family through this, that I put my wife through this, and I acted immorally,' Weinstein continued. 'I put so many friends through this and hurt people that were close to me by actions that were stupid, you know what I mean? But never illegal, never criminal, never anything.' Weinstein, who was found guilty on three of seven charges in an L.A. sexual assault trial in 2022 and sentenced to 16 years in prison, is being retried in New York after his previous convictions in the state were overturned in 2024. He has been charged with two counts of committing a 'criminal sexual act' in the first degree and one count of third-degree rape. Closing arguments in the retrial wrapped on Wednesday, and jury deliberations began on Thursday. Scotto also asked Weinstein why he decided not to testify in the retrial. Though he said he 'wanted to,' Weinstein added that Aidala 'said to me that the jury was very feeling strongly, that the jury understood our case and would be sympathetic to our case and that the DA would try to rip me apart if I took the stand.' Weinstein continued, 'I'm not afraid of the DA, but this was the best advice and this is the advice you often hear: don't take the stand if you don't have to.'

'I hated my gayness for a long time, that's why I needed to share my story'
Suzi Ruffell is a comedian, podcast host and writer who has released her first book 'Am I Having Fun Now? Anxiety, Applause and Life's Big Questions, Answered' She joins Yahoo's Queer Voices series to discuss her book, coming out and living with anxiety. The comedian is on a nationwide tour with The Juggle from Friday 6 June to 23 November. I think it's really important to share the journey of coming out in the book because it makes that part of who I am now. But also because I think that sometimes there are people that might suggest we've reached equality, that there's no further to go, that if LGBT people want more why do we still need Pride? And when people will say things like that, I think it's important to let those people in a little bit and talk about the fact that it can be really hard to come out. It was really hard for me to come out. It took me a long time to really accept that about myself. I really hated my gayness for a long time and felt enormous shame around it, and to be honest it wasn't until I was probably 30, maybe a little bit older, that I was really comfortable in my own skin. And I wanted to talk about it firstly because I wanted people to know the journey that happens for queer people, even if they have a loving family. I thought my family would find it an adjustment, which they did, but I always knew they would love me. But it was still hard, it was still hard for me and I think it can still be hard for people now coming out. I also wanted to share the difficulty in accepting myself because I wanted to show the reader the journey that I've had. As I say in the book, when I was first coming out I felt really unlovable. When I was working out my sexuality, when I was first attracted to women, I was firstly ashamed, secondly sort of disgusted with myself, which is really sad that I felt like that about something that is entirely natural to me. And so I wanted to talk about the fact that I don't feel like that anymore, the fact that I did fall in love and that I do now feel worthy of love. It was really important for me to be brutally honest about my experiences in the book, whether that be my experiences as a queer person or my experiences as a mum, or my experiences as someone that lives with anxiety. I really like stuff that's brutally honest. I like stuff that gets rid of the small talk and you get straight into it. It's also the kind of comedy that I've done for a long time, my comedy is really open. It's really honest and real — I don't really love that word as I think it means too many things, but you get what I mean — So I wanted to talk about anxiety and the mental health stuff. Now we're getting to publication, it feels a bit scarier but I do think that it's important to put it out there, and to be honest about how bad it has been in the past because I think people might often assume [things] if you do a job like this. There's that cliche of the comedian that's depressed, and I don't fall into that category at all — I actually don't know many comedians that do — but I think anxiety is more prevalent than you might realise. I wanted to talk about it, so I think people might be a little surprised that someone that stands on stage in front of thousands of people won't worry about that, but they'll worry about an awkward moment they had with someone six years ago, and we'll ruminate on it for a week. I wanted to talk about it because when I've been in really low places, whether that be because of specific anxiety issues or whether that be because of heartbreak or grief, what I've really sought is books. I love books and I've really looked for books that are honest, but also that make me laugh and that are hopeful. And that's really what I tried to create in writing this book, and I think I did. It was really cathartic writing this, I didn't realise how much I was going to enjoy writing it. I loved writing it. I didn't go to university, I never wrote dissertations or anything like that, so it was a real change in the rhythm of my day and the rhythm of how I write, because I wrote a lot of stand up on the stage. I'll have an idea there and then I'll talk about it and you know, some bits work and some bits won't, but that's partly in the stand up, and that's alright. So it was a really different thing to do. The length of the book means that you can talk for as long as you want to about the subject, there doesn't need to be a punchline. And so it ended up being enormously cathartic and really enjoyable to go back and revisit those moments, and to see them with adult eyes. I think I've processed quite a lot of stuff but I didn't realise I really needed to. I'm really excited to go out on tour. I feel very lucky that I get to do comedy. Comedy is great, I really love it and I'm really thrilled that I've got this audience that come and see me. They're so great and so lovely, and they're just a bunch of absolute legends that are bang up for it from the moment I walk on stage. I'm trying to be very positive in the lead up to the tour, I really like the show — that really helps. I'm really proud of it and I'm trying to be present with the anxiety around it and also witnessing the anxiety but not hanging too much on it — which is, I think, a good way to look at it. I'm really excited about getting on stage and performing because it's just full of new stories that I can't wait to share with people. The comedy that I do is storytelling and it all comes from truth, it's just really fun. It's a really great thing to do with your life, I love it. If you think of how comedy looks now to how the comedy landscape looked then, it was so male. It was very white, it was really hard to get even booked on line ups, I'm not talking about on TV shows. They would never be more than two women on a bill, and we were also sort of told not to talk about it. Well I don't know who we were told by, but it was a given that wouldn't talk about the injustice of it. And if you've got a job, you just sort of would feel lucky. The landscape was totally different. It was really usual to get misogynistic heckles, it was pretty usual to get homophobic heckles. I mean, I'm sure those people still exist but comedy has moved in such a way that now if you are a fan of comedy you will be able to find someone that is like you that does stand up. I think comedy really is for everyone, I think it's a great way to connect with people, to bring down barriers, to let people into the kind of person you are, to see people's humanity — I love comedy for that. And I think that for a long time, comedy felt like it was only talking to a certain type of person, and now I think you can see that comedy really is for everyone. I'm not saying that it's perfect, I still think it's a shame that we don't have any women that are hosting big TV shows. And I think that it's a shame that lots of the shows have men being the team captains, or whatever the show. But hopefully in ten years time, we won't be saying that. So it's definitely improved, massively improved, but I think there's still a bit of a way to go. In the book I talk at length, not so much length that it's a problem, but I talk about the fact that Kate Winslet was sort of… I'm not saying Kate Winslet made me gay, I'm just saying she opened my eyes to who I could be in the world or who I was in the world. And so Kate Winslet in Titanic will always hold a very special place in my heart. Also, looking back, Friends isn't perfect but Carol and Susan getting married, having a life, being parents to Ben with Ross, and Ross, in time, coming around to the idea that his wife left him for another woman was comforting. It's hard to say queer role models I had growing up because I wasn't sure that I had them, I bloody love Claire Balding. I'm lucky enough to have met her a few times now and I just think she's great, and she's always been unapologetically herself which I love, but I think I found my bigger role models later on, maybe when I was more confident in my own skin. I would say Wanda Sykes, who's an American stand up that is just phenomenal, is my favourite and I find her enormously inspiring, both as the person that she is in the world but then also the fact that she is really, really, really funny. She's just brilliant, she's an enormous role model and enormously inspiring, both as a queer person but as a stand up as well. I wish films like Pride existed when I was younger. I love that movie, it's such a good film, I love it, I've seen it lots of times. I love Hacks, there's a character that's bisexual — actually there's a number of characters that are queer in one way or another — but one of the leads is bisexual, and it's not a big deal, and I think that's really important as well. It's just part of her life, it's actually not an enormous part of the storytelling. Her relationships are, but her queerness isn't and I love that she just happens to be gay. I think that's what we need, just seeing more queer people existing and knowing that it's okay and it's not weird and it's not different. When I was a young person if I saw queer media of any kind it would be something about people being kicked out of home or their parents not loving them anymore, or it would be about the AIDS crisis and there would be very few things that would be about being a happy gay person. And so anything that exists where someone is living a normal life and has friends and has a network of people that they love and that are around them would have been a really great thing for me to see. I'm not a queer activist, but I do talk openly about being gay. I'm not someone that understands how you challenge policy other than signing letters and listening to people. I think the best way to tackle people's prejudices is to live, the best thing that you can do is to live happily. I know that might seem impossible, but living your authentic self means that you've won. People can shout, but a lot of the time people are just shouting into a bin because I do think the majority of people feel like that about anyone in the LGBTQIA+ community. I think most people think that people should be allowed to live their authentic lives and I like to think that most people are good, and the majority of people are kind. I think we're certainly living in a time now where it does feel like we're sort of swinging right and certainly with the sort of leap in support of people like Reform, I think, is really scary. But I'm sort of reticent to say people should always be speaking and always being visible, cause I think sometimes that's not safe, and if that's not safe no one should feel like they have to do that. I think engaging with people is the thing that can really help. I think lots of the people that were more homophobic say in the 90s were people that hadn't spent any time with gay people, they didn't know anyone that was gay. Now everyone knows gay people, I don't think people are scared of gay people. I think that certainly it's become less homophobic and I think that certainly in the media there's more TV and more music and more art and more theatre created with queer people in mind, with queer stories, that's a really powerful tool. It's a really powerful tool to get people to see us. I think Russell T Davis did such a great job with It's a Sin. I'm sure people who watched it didn't have the best response to the AIDS crisis in the 80s and 90s, but watching that show they probably felt a lot more empathy and a lot more understanding. And so I think that telling stories is a really great way to change hearts and minds. It's also really important that it's storytelling for every kind of person. I think it's really important that lots of people from lots of demographics are heard — that it's not just white queer stories that get told. It's how we see each other's humanity, it's how we know that we're all not that different, regardless of what we look like, or who we go to bed with, if there's a God that we pray to. I think all of us feel the same things, all of us know what those different feelings feel like, whether that be devastation or joy, or hope, or despair. I think that being able to see those stories told through whatever media is a way of connecting with people that they don't really know or they don't really understand. My advice for queer youth would be don't come until you're ready. Don't feel like you need to leap out of the closet, there'll be loads of time to have all the fun and do all the things. I know sometimes it feels like it needs to get out, but make sure you do it when you know you have some people around you that can hold you up if that needs to happen. I would always say you don't need to be a particular type of queer person. For a while I thought: 'I don't fit with these people, I don't fit with those people'. I'm trying to be this kind of person and it was really hard to not feel like I've fitted in, but in time I really found my people. I found my best friends, I found the people that I adore that are like me, that understand my life. But it just took me a little while and if it takes you a while that's cool too. I would also say, and Dustin Lance Black said this to me when I interviewed him and I think he's just brilliant, he said that people's first reaction isn't always their best reaction and I thought that was so great because I think sometimes people don't react in the way that you want them to. That can be really disappointing, and in time they might realise that that's not the way that they really wanted to react either. But people are people, and sometimes people make mistakes, and giving people another chance, or allowing people to apologise, I think is really important. Certainly if someone doesn't quite understand, doesn't know about what a life like ours might look like, in time it's okay to forgive and give them another opportunity. I've always felt that's that's the people that we are in lots of ways because sometimes people don't react in ways you want them to, but if you let them in a little bit, if you let them know that there's not actually that much that's different, you allow them to change their mind. That's good too.

It Starts On The Page: Read ‘The Diplomat' Season 2 Finale Script 'Dreadnought' With Foreword By Debora Cahn
Editor's note: Deadline's It Starts on the Page (Drama) features standout drama series scripts in 2025 Emmy contention. The Diplomat creator Debora Cahn loves a cliffhanger. After leaving multiple major characters' fates up in the air at the end of the first season of the Netflix thriller, Cahn throws another huge wrench into international relations between the U.S. and the UK by the end of Season 2. More from Deadline Keri Russell & Allison Janney Talk Going Head-To-Head As Female Power Players In 'The Diplomat' Season 2 & Tease What's To Come After That Finale Twist 'Ginny & Georgia' Season 3 Soundtrack: From Remi Wolf To Sofi Tukker 2025 Premiere Dates For New & Returning Series On Broadcast, Cable & Streaming The breakneck six-episode season picks up right where things left off in Season 1, plunging viewers into the panic that broke out after a car bomb exploded in the heart of London, killing Parliament member Merritt Grove and leaving Kate's (Keri Russell) husband Hal (Rufus Sewell) as well as her deputy chief of mission Stuart Hayford (Ato Essandoh) severely injured. Kate and British Foreign Secretary Austin Dennison (David Gyasi) have just started to think they might have solved the mystery surrounding the bombing of a British aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf. But, as they soon learn, the truth is far more complicated than they could have ever imagined, and their quest only becomes more thorny with the arrival of U.S. Vice President Grace Penn (Allison Janney). Written by Cahn and directed by Alex Graves, the Season 2 finale, titled 'Dreadnought,' does provide both the audience and the characters with the answers they are desperately seeking. But at what cost? A pretty steep one, that's for sure. Russell earned an Emmy nomination for her performance as the ambassador to the UK, and Season 2 has already racked up a few major nomination including a DGA Awards nod for Graves and Golden Globes recognition for Russell and Janney. Here is the script for 'Dreadnought' with an intro by Cahn, in which she describes how she tried to do a 'non-sh*tty' version of the idea for the big 'Hal kills the President' finale plot twist that may have sounded 'stupid' and 'problematic' at first, and the one line in the script that reassured her that they have pulled it off. Every idea, when it first drops, sounds stupid. Maybe not every, but a lot of them, and 'Hal kills the President' sounded particularly Vice President has done a very bad thing. Hal, believing his wife Kate would be a better vice president anyway, tells the President about the bad thing and the President drops was problematic on a number of levels. One, our fictional president was a white male of a certain age, who bore a passing resemblance to Joe Biden, who was, when we were writing the story, running for a second term. Our season was slated to drop four days before the election. Suggesting that a white male president of a certain age hears a piece of bad news and drops dead in the Oval seemed if it didn't rhyme with the real election, President clutches chest and expires behind Resolute Desk sounded lame. But it was the finale, and anything finale-worthy was likely to sound lame in its baldest form, so I found myself saying, 'Yes, but we'll do the not-shitty version,' like that was some sort of literary device I'd learned from a close reading of not-shitty version required underplaying pretty much everything. We didn't want to see it happen, we just wanted to see Hal telling Kate. We didn't want to see Hal freak out. We wanted to see him caught in some kind of administrative snaggle – he needs to call his wife, he needs his cell phone, but he's in the CIA station and they don't allow cell phones in the station, so somebody's getting their assistant to call Kate's assistant and he finally erupts – slams his hand on the glass wall and says, 'Get my wife on the phone.'It seemed important that the eruption be both vocal and physical. We'd delayed it and contained it and this would be the only place where the magnitude of the situation was visible. I try not to write a lot of stage directions so that when they appear they make an impact. I even used all caps, which I also try to avoid. SLAMS. When we were filming the scene, I asked our director, Alex Graves, if it felt like a SLAM or just a slam because I really wanted it to be a SLAM, and Alex pointed out that if Rufus Sewell hit the glass any harder it would shatter, and perhaps we could make the slam a SLAM in then there was Hal's delivery of the news. Hal struggles to find the words, and lands on, 'He got really upset.'That's when I decided it would be okay. Which is what happens. An idea sounds implausible or trite and you spend a lot of time trying to build it out and ground it and support it with a great deal of research and nuance and complexity, but ultimately you have to fall in love with some piece of it, and for me it was that line, describing the cardiac death of a president.'He got really upset.'
