Watch: First Look at 'The Purge: Anarchy'

Universal Pictures have released the first trailer for the upcoming The Purge: Anarchy, which is a sequel to last year's low-budget hit The Purge.

Anarchy follows a couple who get stuck out of their house as their car runs out of gas, when the radio announces the start of The Purge: a 12-hour-long annual period when every criminal activity (murder, theft and rape) becomes legal.

The film, which stars Ethan Hawke was a big commercial success in 2013, as it earned $89 million in the box office worldwide, after being made with a budget of $3 million, and topped the American box office list.

The Purge: Anarchy stars Zach Gilford, Kiele Sanchez, Frank Grillo, Michael K. Williams and Carmen Ejogo. The film will be released in Egyptian theaters by Four Star Films, Universal Pictures and Paramount Pictures' distributors in Egypt.
