Day Shift was directed by JJ Perry. Perry is a veteran in the industry after working as a second unit director and stunt coordinator for many hit movies such as Bloodshot, Fast & Furious 9, The Fate of the Furious, and the entire John Wick franchise.

The screenplay was written by Tyler Tice with edits by Shay Hatten with Chad Stahelski as the producer.

Day Shift Plot: What Will be the Plot of the Movie?

Day Shift is about a father who works hard to provide a good life for his daughter. He works as a pool cleaner, but his day job is only a front for his actual night-shift employment as a present vampire killer. The film is an action movie, but with Jamie Foxx in the lead, we can expect to see a lot of comedy.

Day Shift Trailer: Is There a Trailer for Day Shift?

Day Shift does not have a trailer as of writing. We can expect to see a trailer for the movie at least a month before it premieres, so Netflix may drop the teaser sometime in July. In the meantime, you can watch the movie previews for Netflix’s 2022 titles here:

On July 11, the full trailer of the movie was released. The trailer showed us Jamie Foxx and his team with a newbie vampire hunter, played by Dave Franco. We also catch Snoop Dogg as the coolest and chillest, machine gun-wielding vampire hunter.

Subtle hints of vampire pop culture references such as Twilight are nice touchs that somehow make the movie even funnier.
