This is one intense drive.

At first glance, this may look like a trailer for a movie that is literally about a man driving around in his (really expensive) car—and, to be fair, it kind of is. The entire movie takes place as Tom Hardy drives in his car, taking and placing a series of phone calls with those who are closest to him in his life (we only hear the voices of Olivia Colman, Ruth Wilson, and Andrew Scott) while trying to keep his life together and maneuver cruise control at the same time.

Sounds like too simple a concept to base a whole movie off of, but here's the good part: The result is actually a very intriguing film. Titled Locke, after Hardy's character's name Ivan Locke, the film has already garnered some pretty great reviews after making the rounds at film festivals, and it currently holds a 93 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Check out the trailer above. Locke hits theaters on April 25 in the US, and April 18 in the UK.
