BMW Films has dropped the latest installment of its The Hire series, starring Clive Owen as a mysterious driver for hire. Like its predecessors, this new chapter, dubbed The Escape, is helmed by a well-known director. This time around it's District 9's Neill Blomkamp, who packs both action and sci-fi elements into a tight 11-minute nail-biter. The short film also stars Jon Bernthal, Vera Farmiga and Dakota Fanning, as well as a sharp-looking 2017 BMW 5 Series. Enjoy The Escape below.
