Rebel Ridge Release Date Set for Netflix’s Aaron Pierre Thriller
Netflix has announced the release date for its forthcoming action thriller, which will be led by Mufasa’s Aaron Pierre.
“Terry Richmond (Pierre) enters the town of Shelby Springs on a simple but urgent mission– post bail for his cousin and save him from imminent danger,” reads the film’s official synopsis. “But when Terry’s life’s savings is unjustly seized by law-enforcement, he’s forced to go head to head with local police chief Sandy Burnne and his combat-ready officers. Terry finds an unlikely ally in court clerk Summer McBride and the two become ensnared in a deep-rooted conspiracy within the remote township. As the stakes turn deadly, Terry must call upon his mysterious background to break the department’s hold on the community, bring justice to his own family– and protect Summer in the process.”
Rebel Ridge will be available for streaming starting on Friday, September 6, 2024. In addition, Netflix has also provided the film’s first look photos featuring the main cast, including Pierre.
Described as a “deeply human yet high-velocity thriller,” the film is written and directed by Jeremy Saulnier (Hold the Dark). Prior to Pierre’s casting, Star Wars alum John Boyega was originally slated to lead the project. However, due to “family reasons,” Boyega had to exit the movie in the middle of shooting.
The film also stars Don Johnson, AnnaSophia Robb, David Denman, Emory Cohen, Steve Zissis, Zsané Jhé, Dana Lee, and James Cromwell. It is produced by Anish Savjani, Neil Kopp, Vincent Savino and Jeremy Saulnier, with Daniel Jason Heffner, Macon Blair, and Louise Lovegrove executive producing.
