Don Johnson Wages a Storage War in First ‘Unit 234’ Trailer [Exclusive]

A night shift attendant finds herself trapped in a Storage Wars episode gone wrong in the modern trailer for Unit 234. Don Johnson stars in this thrilling tale of a mystery man, a ruthless band of criminals, and the woman caught in the middle. The film will premiere in theaters and on-demand on May 9, 2025. Collider can exclusively reveal the modern thriller’s trailer and poster below.

The trailer opens in a convoluted of storage units, where Laurie (Isabelle Fuhrman) is working the night shift when Jules (Johnson) drops in, demanding to see the contents of the titular Unit 234. However, since he can’t produce anything that ties him to the unit, she has to ask him to leave. Overcome with curiosity, Laurie checks the unit herself, and what she finds inside it is something much more alarming than patio furniture or senior comic books: it’s Clayton (Jack Huston), a mystery man handcuffed to a gurney who also happens to be missing a kidney. Pretty soon, Jules returns with reinforcements who are desperate to get Clayton for reasons that remain mysterious. These are bad men, and they know it: when Laurie tells Jules that “you people are going straight to Hell,” his response, simply, is that “I’m okay with that.” Who is Clayton, and why does everyone want him dead? You’ll have to find out next month, when Unit 234 debuts in select theaters and on-demand.
