Leonardo DiCaprio is on a quest to save his daughter in the trailer for One Battle After Another, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson (Licorice Pizza).

Inspired by Thomas Pynchon's novel Vineland, One Battle After Another stars DiCaprio as Bob Ferguson, an ex-revolutionary who's been out of the game for a while. Case in point? His failure to remember a series of (admittedly convoluted) codes.

"Let's just not nitpick over the passwords," he says during the trailer's chaotic opening phone call.

However, as the trailer continues, it becomes understandable that Bob is so frazzled when asked for a password. He's searching for his daughter (Chase Infiniti) in the wake of an attack on his home by an old enemy. Now, he'll have to band together with his fellow former revolutionaries in order to find her.

One Battle After Another also stars Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro, Regina Hall, and Teyana Taylor.

One Battle After Another hits theaters Sept. 26.
