Have to disagree with Greg here, sorry.

The big deal is not conforming the 4K red files, the big deal is offlining a
trailer for a show cut in FCP.

The FCP session will have synced clips (red-originated picture and probably
BWAV originated sound). In order to be able to cut a trailer, you would need
to have access to those synced clips. Getting those from FCP to Avid (or
vice versa) as far as I know is not easy. It may require more time to handle
that correctly than cutting a trailer will take (days if not weeks).

If it were up to me, I would have them do a playout of their current cut
(dialogue only, preferably with some burnins), then after locking the
offline for the trailer, manually reconform the trailer in FCP from the
sources. Then export for 4K finishing and sound post.

Manually conforming such a cut should take a few hours.

Or cut the trailer in FCP.
