Without Remorse Trailer
InWithout Remorse, “an elite Navy SEAL uncovers an international conspiracy while seeking justice for the murder of his pregnant wife.” That elite Navy SEAL is Sr. Chief John Kelly (Michael B. Jordan), and “a squad of Russian soldiers kills his family in retaliation for his role in a top-secret op.” Following the murder, Kelly “pursues the assassins at all costs. Joining forces with a fellow SEAL (Jodie Turner-Smith) and a shadowy CIA agent (Jamie Bell), Kelly’s mission unwittingly exposes a covert plot that threatens to engulf the U.S. and Russia in an all-out war. Torn between personal honor and loyalty to his country, Kelly must fight his enemies without remorse if he hopes to avert disaster and reveal the powerful figures behind the conspiracy.”
Directed byStefano Sollima(Sicario: Day of the Soldado) and written byTaylor SheridanandWill Staples,Without Remorseis the latest attempt by Amazon to bring the world of Tom Clancy to the screen. They also haveJack Ryan, a not-great show that clearly has found an audience. Clancy’s books were airport reads that reveled in gung-ho militaristic might, and Hollywood has tried for years to turn them into tentpole movies with mixed results.The Hunt For Red OctoberandPatriot Gamesare probably the two most successful attempts, but there are plenty of others – likeThe Sum of All FearsandJack Ryanstarring Chris Pine.
Without Remorsedeserves credit for trying something else instead of yet another story about Jack Ryan. And I’m sure it’ll benefit from the presence of Michael B. Jordan, who is a charismatic actor who deserves success. At one point,Without Remorsewas supposed to go to theaters courtesy of Paramount Pictures. The COVID-19 pandemic changed that, and Amazon scooped up the rights. There were initially plans forWithout Remorseto be the first in a two-part series, with Jordan playing Kelly again in a follow-up film,Rainbow Six. It’s unclear if that’s still happening at this point. Maybe Amazon will want to go ahead withRainbow SixifWithout Remorsegenerates enough buzz.Without Remorsehits Amazon Prime Video onApril 30, 2021.
