New Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 Trailer

Are you ready for some evil John Travolta action? Well, you’re in luck because a new trailer has just been released for Tony Scott’s The Taking of Pelham 123. The film stars Travolta as a hijacker of the aforementioned New York City subway train. Denzel Washington co-stars as a dispatcher who has to miraculously turn into a professional negotiator in order to save dozens of innocent lives. The film hits theaters on June 12 of this year and also stars James Gandolfini and John Turturro. This trailer features more dialogue than the first, and has a certain Jack Bauer 24 quality to it. Continue after the jump to view the video.

Am I the only one who wishes Travolta would channel more Castor Troy from Face Off than A.J. McLean from the Backstreet Boys? I can’t be the only one who notices the resemblance between those two when he’s wearing the sunglasses and skull cap.
