What is Flight Risk about?
“In this high-stakes suspense thriller, Academy Award nominee Mark Wahlberg (Actor in a Supporting Role, 2006 – The Departed) plays a pilot transporting an Air Marshal (Michelle Dockery) accompanying a fugitive (Topher Grace) to trial,” the official synopsis reads. “As they cross the Alaskan wilderness, tensions soar and trust is tested, as not everyone on board is who they seem.”
The script for Flight Risk was written by Jared Rosenberg. Gibson produces the movie alongside John Davis, John Fox, and Bruce Davey.
Alex Lebovici, Jenny Hinkey, Ryan D. Smith, Natasha Stassen, Allen Cheney, Christopher Woodrow, K. Blaine Johnston, Christian Mercuri, Petr Jákl, Vicki Christianson, Nick Guerra, Russell Hollander, Jon Huddle, Patrick Josten, Walter Josten, and Jordan Wagner serve as executive producers.
Gibson previously directed 1993’s The Man Without a Face, 1995’s Braveheart, 2004’s The Passion of the Christ, 2006’s Apocalypto, and 2016’s Hacksaw Ridge. He’s also working on a sequel to The Passion of the Christ that is currently expected to be released in 2025.
Flight Risk isn’t the only action movie that Wahlberg has coming out in the near future. He’s also starring in a Netflix movie titled The Union, which releases this coming August. In addition to Wahlberg, The Union stars Halle Berry, Mike Colter, and J.K. Simmons.
