The crime thriller, adapted from Lee Child's Jack Reacher book series, will follow the retired Military Police Officer as he's arrested for a murder he didn't commit before setting out to prove his innocence and uncover the dirty cops who framed him.

In the two-minute clip, we watch as Reacher is surrounded by fellow inmates in prison, all with intentions to kill him.

"If you boys knew what's about to happen to you, you'd leave now," Reacher says whilst coolly taking off his sunglasses. "So I'll give you until the count of three."

However, just after one, the officer goes straight in with a headbutt to one of the prisoner's faces, before expertly incapacitating the rest of the gang.
