Movies where a Land Cruiser has a starring or supporting role?

Not a movie but real life: https://global.toyota/en/newsroom/corporate/33208872.html

Can’t remember now mainly because I watched to much crap on streaming services over the past couple years. There was a series that had Arctic built LC, defender and patrols.
Found it! Fortitude

MacGyver was badass. Would've been way more badass if he rocked a 40 instead of a J**p.

That was my favorite show as a kid and a big reason I was such a Jeep fan growing up. How many lives were lead astray by the awesomeness of MacGyver?

Here's a 12 year running thread on Mud about the topic:

Land Cruisers in film

I wanted to ask this question to everyone as I have seen the LC in many movies. The most recent was Gran Torino which featured a 200 series Land Cruiser. Another film was the The Mist. Any other films anyone know of?

Just saw the trailer for the series The Old Man and saw a 60 and a 40 in the two minutes.

It looks good!
It's a little hard for me to see "The Dude" as a ruthless killer though....

Romancing the Stone has a 25/40 that survives a jungle chase

Dante’s Peak has a 60

Jennifer Garner drives a Land Cruiser (62) in Alias…

Marry Me has two black LX570s…J.Lo has good taste

Watch just about any episode of Narcos on Netfilx.

Toyota Land Cruiser in "Narcos"

Netflix narcos fj60 and hj61 hightops

was watching season 2 of Narcos and there was a bunch of great Land Cruisers on. Multiple fj60s and some Hj61 hightops with ambulance doors. The cops were all aboard Nissan Patrols. Definitely period correct cars.

There will be a new series being released on Amazon Prime in July called The Terminal List. The books are written by a former Navy SEAL Named Jack Carr who is a fanatic Cruiser Head. So there will plenty of Land Cruiser action.

I'm sure Hulk has an 80.

Rundown with the rock. Believe it had a 40 in it. Even though it died very a very naste death.

Travis, have you been watching this? Yeah Chris Pratt drives a built FJ62... the rear bumper looks really good to me other than the brake lights, they do some disco thing as turn signals which I'm not a fan of. But he drives the heck out of that thing, even backs into a car intentionally which doesn't seem to harm the bumper at all.

The rest of the show is all vintage Land Rovers, which is pretty sweet also. Anyone else watching this?

I burned through Terminal list in a weekend. A good show and a really sweet truck.

So apparently when they shot that scene, the only thing on the truck that got damaged was the fuel can carrier.
After filming, Jack Carr was able to purchase the truck and now has it in his driveway, out in Salt Lake City, along with his Champagne 62 that's been Corvette LS3 swapped.

Not a staring role but an episode.

For you 80s kids: Airwolf Season 01 Episode 08:

 

[RayRay27]

There's a pretty good movie on Netflix right now called the stranger. In the movie they're driving around in an 80 most of the time.

 

[Danger Noodle]

"The Hunter" with Willam Defore has a cool old 45 in several scenes. A great indie-ish film that's really bleak. I think it's free on youtube.
