Netflix's The Out-Laws Trailer Cracks An A+ James Bond Joke That Could Only Happen With Pierce Brosnan

Ellen Barkin and Pierce Brosnan looking amused while standing in a hotel room in The Out-Laws.

It’s a tale as old as time: boy meets girl, finds a stable relationship with said girl, and finds out his future in-laws are bank robbers. Ok, so maybe Netflix’s new action rom-com The Out-Laws strays from the usual path to romance a bit differently, but the film’s first trailer does show this 2023 new movie release has quite a flair for the comedic. And part of that is thanks to an A+ joke about the James Bond movies that could only happen with former 007 Pierce Brosnan involved.

Netflix’s first trailer for this summer offering shows us the story of Owen (Adam Devine) and Parker (Nina Dobrev), a pair of crazy kids ready to get married. So far so good, as again the red streaming giant makes hay with these sorts of romances quite often. The arrival of Parker’s parents (Ellen Barkin and Pierce Brosnan) complicates things a bit, but not merely with the usual claims that their daughter can do better.
