Samuel L. Jackson and Dave Bautista Suit Up in the New Afterburn Movie Trailer

Samuel L. Jackson and Dave Bautista star in the upcoming film adaptation of the cult comic series Afterburn, which brings a high stakes post-apocalyptic heist to theaters in August 2025.

The action movie landscape is getting a dose of high stakes post-apocalyptic chaos. IGN South Africa recently showcased the official trailer for Afterburn, an upcoming adaptation of the cult classic comic series created by Scott Chitwood and Paul Ens. The film stars Samuel L.

Jackson and Dave Bautista at the head of an explosive cast, following a crew of mercenaries navigating a radioactive wasteland in search of high value lost technology. Between mutated threats and rival warlords, the setup leans heavily into the kind of gritty adventure that often makes the jump from page to screen. For players who enjoy sprawling apocalyptic settings found in titles like Rage or Fallout, this cinematic trip to a ruined Earth might be worth keeping on the radar.

Afterburn is scheduled to hit theaters on August 22, 2025. You can check out the original report and watch the trailer over at IGN South Africa.
