The most athletic hospitality duo on the Internet is set for an action-packed return. Marriott has released the trailer for Two Bellmen Two, an upcoming short film that will serve as a sequel to 2015’s Two Bellmen.
The first Two Bellmen film was one of the first productions we saw out of the Red Bull-esque Marriott Content Studio, which launched in 2014. It was born out of a partnership with creative collective Substance Over Hype and starred Hollywood stuntmen William Spencer and Caine Sinclair as a pair of Marriott hotel employees who will pull out all the stops--including jumps, flips, and intricately-choreographed fistfights--in order to best serve their guests. The film arrived in March 2015 and has since received more than five million views, many of them paid. Viewers who stuck around to watch the whole video were impressed by the high quality of its stuntwork and the charming personalities of its leads.

Marriott Content Studio is expanding on its first short film franchise. The digital studio owned by the international hotel chain has started production on Two Bellmen Two, starring Slumdog Millionaire actress Freida Pinto.
Written by Daniel Malakai Cabrera, Two Bellmen Two is the sequel to Marriott’s first original short film Two Bellmen, which debuted in March 2015 and has over 5.1 million views on YouTube alone to date. The sophomore short in the Two Bellmen franchise tells the story of Sandra (played by Pinto), a businesswoman who arrives at the Jw Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai to give an important presentation. But when the Usb drive with her speech and confidential information is lost, Two Bellmen Two re-introduces viewers to bellhops Gage (played by William Spencer) and Christian (Caine Sinclair) who race through the streets of Dubai on horse, jet ski, skateboard, and other such unusual transportation methods to recover the device.

When Marriott first announced its digital studio back in September 2014, VP of Creative and Content Marketing David Beebe explained the plan was “to be the Red Bull" of the hotel industry. With its latest release, Marriott Content Studio has offered its most Red Bull-ish video yet. The hotel chain has released Two Bellmen, a short film created in partnership with Substance Over Hype.
Two Bellmen follows a pair of Marriott employees as they look to stop an art heist at their hotel. The film, which debuted a trailer last month, has now arrived on its own YouTube channel:
Substance Over Hype is a collective of active people, and its focus is apparent through Two Bellmen. Much of the film is devoted to impressive stunt work and action choreography, with hotel items like keycards and luggage carts often serving as improvised props. The script is filled with fast-paced quips, and stars...

One of those projects, a short film titled Two Bellmen, will debut on March 10, 2015, and Marriott just released a sneak peek of the film to get viewers ramped up for its release.
