Ambulancestar Eiza González recalls the heated on-set argument between her and director Michael Bay that erupted over creative differences. González rose to fame as a singer and actress in her home country of Mexico, but recent years have seen her transition into Hollywood with much success. Her most prominent roles have come in movies like Baby Driver, I Care A Lot, and Godzilla vs. Kong, though those are really only just scratching the surface. González's next high-profile project, Bay's Ambulance, debuts in U.S. theaters on April 8. It has already rolled out in select international territories.
Ambulance stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as brothers who become the targets of a citywide manhunt after they rob a bank. Will (Abdul-Mateen) is just desperate for cash to help his wife, and career criminal Danny (Gyllenhaal) ropes him into stealing $32 million. However, everything goes sideways when law enforcement comes after them hard, and the brothers take over an ambulance with a paramedic (González) and injured police officer (Jackson White) in the back. Ambulance also stars Garret Dillahunt, Keir O'Donnell, and Moses Ingram.
