Bob Odenkirk rose to prominence for his comedic chops, particularly when he served as the co-host of the HBO sketch series Mr. Show. But in recent years, Odenkirk has proven that he’s a great dramatic actor, primarily through his fantastic work on Better Call Saul. Now, Odenkirk is ready to try something new: action star. The actor gets to kick some ass and kill some bad guys in Nobody, a film from director Ilya Naishuller (Hardcore Henry) and writer Derek Kolstad (John Wick).

Here’s a synopsis:

I’m sure some people will scoff at the idea of Odenkirk in an action movie, but I’m all-in on this. That said, I do wish the premise was a little more original – the “violent guy who gets violent again when his past catches up to him” has been used in several films, most notably David Cronenberg’s A History of Violence. Still, while this may not be the most groundbreaking of films, it looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun. Also: Christopher Lloyd is part of the cast! He plays Odenkirk’s father.

Nobody hits theaters (theaters only, as this teaser stresses) on April 2.
