Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Super Pumped: The Battle For Uber
Watch Next

The first full trailer for Super Pumped: The Battle For Uber has arrived, giving us a closer look at Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Uber co-founder and former CEO Travis Kalanick. Appropriately, it seems as though the actor really dialed back the charm for this one.

Based on the 2019 book of the same name by Mike Isaac, Super Pumped follows Kalanick from the start of Uber to his ousting from the company, focusing on the rampant internal politics and power plays we've come to expect from Silicon Valley tech businesses. The series also stars Uma Thurman as Arianna Huffington, Kyle Chandler as Bill Gurley, and Hank Azaria as Apple boss Tim Cook.

Super Pumped: The Battle For Uber premieres Feb. 27 on Showtime.
