What is the film all about?
Deep Cover centers around Kat, an improv comedy teacher. The trailer for the action comedy film was released on April 30, 2025, and is available on the official Prime Video YouTube channel. The trailer begins with Kat arriving at a friend's place with the cupcakes to have a chat. During the discussion, Kat explains her newly established improv class and what it's about to her friend.
Later, one of her students, Marlon, is seen speaking to a person about wanting a real acting job. The person reminds him that he's no Al Pacino, but rather just an ordinary man from the Cotswolds. While at the bar, after one of her on-stage performances, Kat is approached by Detective Sergeant Billings for a job. The job involves using their acting skills to go undercover in criminal organizations.
Kat later involves her students, Marlon and Hugh, in her undercover work for the police by offering them money. The clip then shows their first attempt at going undercover to learn more about Fly's gang, which sells drugs. Somehow, the trio manages to convince everyone about their cover and learn more about the gang in two days than the cop did in two whole years.
The trailer then shows multiple action sequences from the film as the trio continues improvising while things spiral out of control. In the final scene, Marlon tries to scare a gang with a grenade, but it turns out to be a squeaky toy. As the trailer fades, the trio is seen running for their lives from the gang members.
