New Devotion movie trailer takes Top Gun: Maverick star, Glen Powell, into the Korean War. The actor takes the role of Thomas J. Hudner, wingman to Jesse L. Brown (Jonathan Majors), the first Black combat pilot in the U.S. Navy's history. Based on the Adam Makos book, Devotion: An Epic Story of Heroism, Friendship, and Sacrifice, the film centers on Brown as he struggles integrating into the U.S. Navy while away from his wife and newborn child. However, he forms a close bond with Hudner Jr. as they run sorties over the Korean peninsula.
Sony Pictures recently released the latest trailer for Devotion which features Powell once again taking to the skies following his hit film, Top Gun: Maverick, but this time during the Korean War. The trailer promises tons of high-flying action and gritty war drama, but more importantly, the film will chronicle Brown and Hudner Jr.'s relationship throughout their time as wingman during the conflict, a profound friendship that changed both of the pilot's lives. Check out the riveting trailer below.
