John Travolta plays with electricity in the trailer for Life on the Line

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

LIFE ON THE LINE follows Beau (John Travolta), his beloved niece Bailey (Kate Bosworth) and the hardworking men who risk their lives to work (wait for it) “on the line” to keep the electric grid running. Haunted by the electrocution of his brother, Beau is devoted to Bailey and determined to see her go off to college and away from the life of linemen. Bailey has other plans, however, which include the strapping second-generation lineman Duncan (Devon Sawa), whom Beau despises. Will a disastrous event bring the two men together? See for yourself in the following trailer!

I’ll be honest with you; I had no idea Devon Sawa was even a thing anymore. Then again, I had no knowledge of this film even existing before today, so there you go. I think there’s an interesting concept in there somewhere but a hammy script and bad CG made sure this film found its home on On-Demand. Still, I’m surprised they found a helmet big enough to fit Travolta’s head into. That’s no slight against the man’s ego. I just mean that his head is literally huge!

LIFE ON THE LINE hits select theaters and On-Demand on November 18th.
