The action thriller *Unstoppable*, directed by the late Tony Scott, is now available for streaming on Tubi, marking its 15th anniversary since its release on November 4, 2010. The film, which stars Denzel Washington and Chris Pine, offers viewers a riveting experience as it follows two engineers attempting to avert disaster caused by a runaway freight train.

The plot centers around a seasoned engineer and a young conductor who must work together to stop a freight train carrying toxic chemicals, threatening a nearby Pennsylvania town. The film features a supporting cast that includes Rosario Dawson, Ethan Suplee, and Kevin Dunn.
Scott’s direction is lauded for its fast-paced and intense storytelling, reflecting his established reputation for crafting high-octane action films. His previous works also include *True Romance*, *Beverly Hills Cop II*, and *Days of Thunder*.
