NEON has released the official teaser trailer for PAPER TIGER, the new drama from acclaimed filmmaker James Gray, arriving in select theaters November 13, 2026 and expanding nationwide on November 20, 2026. Written, directed, and produced by Gray, the film marks his return to intimate, character‑driven storytelling with a powerhouse trio of leads: Adam Driver, Scarlett Johansson, and Miles Teller.
In PAPER TIGER, Gray crafts a deeply felt drama centered on two brothers whose lives unravel after they become entangled in a scheme that appears too good to be true. Their pursuit of opportunity pulls them into the dangerous orbit of the Russian mafiya, where loyalty is fragile and every decision carries escalating stakes.
As the brothers navigate a world of deception, violence, and shifting allegiances, the bonds that once held their family together begin to fracture—leading to choices that will alter their lives forever.
