Overview

• The film premiered worldwide on Amazon Prime Video on June 12, 2025, following screenings at SXSW London and the Tribeca Festival.
• Director Tom Kingsley brings a script co-written by Derek Connolly, Colin Trevorrow, Ben Ashenden and Alexander Owen to life with a trio of improv actors posing as undercover agents.
• Bryce Dallas Howard stars as Kat, an improv teacher recruited by police alongside her students Orlando Bloom’s method-actor Marlon and Nick Mohammed’s socially awkward Hugh.
• Reviewers praise Bloom’s over-the-top performance and the leads’ kinetic chemistry, though some note the action sequences occasionally overpower the character comedy.
• Drawing on British crime-comedy tropes, Deep Cover blends absurd humor with caper conventions in a tone that evokes both Guy Ritchie and Simon Pegg–Nick Frost films.
