When Netflix released the teaser trailer for “Carry-On”, its upcoming thriller set in a busy airport during the holiday season, I declared it could replace ‘Die Hard’ as the go-to movie pick for adrenaline junkies over the festive period. Let’s just say the internet was not very pleased with that assessment. Well, now we have a full trailer, and I’m doubling down.
The latest trailer for “Carry-On” runs almost three minutes, and starts with a jolly holiday classic ("It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" by Andy Williams) as we see a young TSA agent named Ethan (played by Taron Egerton) begin his Christmas Eve shift and have to deal with all manner of difficult passengers. Working around Christmas would be bad enough, but when Ethan picks up a discarded earpiece the real nightmare begins.
