Apple TV+ has released the official trailer for The Lost Bus, a tense survival drama based on the real-life 2018 Camp Fire in Paradise, California. Directed by Paul Greengrass and starring Matthew McConaughey and America Ferrera, the film follows a desperate attempt to save schoolchildren from an encroaching blaze.

McConaughey plays Kevin, a wayward school bus driver who reluctantly steps up when a distress call over the radio reports 23 stranded kids. One of those children belongs to Ferrera's character Mary, a teacher determined to protect her class no matter the cost. What follows is a race against time through smoke-choked streets and collapsing roads, as the two adults navigate chaos, fear, and the limits of their own courage.

The trailer, layered with tense visuals and emotional stakes, calls the fire "the deadliest wildfire in California history." With harrowing shots of the firestorm, the film promises a visceral depiction of disaster. Paul Greengrass, known for the Bourne series and United 93, brings his signature verite style to this terrifying, true-to-life journey.

Produced by Blumhouse and Comet Pictures with a screenplay by Greengrass and Brad Inglesby (Mare of Easttown), The Lost Bus also stars Yul Vazquez, Ashlie Atkinson, and Spencer Watson. It hits select theaters September 19 and debuts on Apple TV+ October 3.
