Overview

  • The studio released the first teaser on Friday, June 26, which offers the earliest footage of Mahershala Ali as Latif, a measured and violent hitman intercut with scenes of family and religious imagery.
  • The official synopsis describes Latif as a devoutly religious killer who, after his wife’s death, must protect his children while confronting forces closing in and his faith beginning to unravel.
  • The film reunites writer-director Bassam Tariq with Ali and features a supporting cast that includes John Cho, Giancarlo Esposito, Tramell Tillman, Abubakr Ali, Tiffany Boone, and Laith Nakli.
  • Production was announced in February 2025 and finished principal photography on May 29, 2025, with Amazon MGM/Orion and Two & Two Pictures backing the project and release set for Sept. 25 in New York and Los Angeles followed by October expansion.
  • The pairing of Tariq and Ali, once attached to Marvel’s stalled Blade project, gives this original, character-driven action drama a creative throughline and sets expectations that marketing and critics will focus on its blend of faith, family, and stylized violence.
