Brad Pitt and George Clooney are back together on screen in the first teaser for their upcoming Apple TV+ film “Wolves.” The 45-second teaser, released on Tuesday, shows the two Hollywood A-listers in a car, with George behind the wheel and Brad looking out the window. The scene is silent except for the sound of squeaky windshield wipers in the rain, creating a tense, mysterious atmosphere. Both actors have serious expressions, with George appearing annoyed and Brad’s eyes darting around as he reaches into his jacket pocket. The clip concludes with the film’s title flashing across the screen, building anticipation for the full-length trailer set to drop on Wednesday.
