Intense Trailer for Tom Clancy's Action Thriller WITHOUT REMORSE Starring Michael B. Jordan
Amazon Studios has released the first intense trailer for Tom Clancy’s action-thriller Without Remorse, which stars Michael B. Jordan.
The film centers around Clancy’s U.S. Navy SEAL character John Clark, who is being played by Jordan. In the film, he set out on a mission to avenge his wife's murder only to find himself inside of a larger conspiracy. It actually looks like this will be a great movie! I liked what I saw in this first trailer.
Just in case you’re not familiar with the character John Clark, he’s the CIA operative who worked alongside Jack Ryan in Clancy’s novels and films. The character was previously played by Willem Dafoe in Clear and Present Danger and Liev Schreiber in The Sum of All Fears.
Here’s a detailed synopsis:
In a war-torn region of Syria, an elite team of Navy SEALs led by Sr. Chief John Kelly (Michael B. Jordan) rescues a CIA operative taken hostage by ex-Russian military forces. Three months later, in apparent retaliation for his role in the mission, Kelly’s pregnant wife Pam (Lauren London) is murdered in the U.S. by a squad of masked Russian assassins. Despite being shot multiple times himself, Kelly manages to kill all but one of the attackers before being rushed to the hospital.
Meanwhile in Washington D.C., Kelly’s friend and former SEAL team member Lt. Commander Karen Greer (Jodie Turner-Smith) meets with CIA agent Robert Ritter (Jamie Bell) and Secretary of Defense Thomas Clay (Guy Pearce) to discuss their response options. Leaked news of Russia’s unprecedented attack on American soil has caused the already-strained relations between the two nations to sour further. If something isn’t done soon the result could be a full-scale war.
Healed from his injuries, a rogue Kelly tracks down the corrupt Russian diplomat who issued the passports to his wife’s murderers, and forces him at gunpoint to give up the name of the surviving assassin. Sent to prison for the crime, Kelly bargains his way out by revealing the escaped operative is one Victor Rykov (Brett Gelman), an ex-Special Forces officer currently hiding in Murmansk, Russia.
With Secretary Clay’s reluctant approval, Kelly joins Greer and Ritter on a top-secret mission to capture Rykov and bring him back to the U.S. to face justice. But en route to Murmansk, their plane is shot down by the Russian Air Force and plummets into the Bering Sea. Using their SEAL skills to survive the crash, they eventually make their way to Rykov’s location, only to discover that the murder of Kelly’s family was part of a vast international conspiracy orchestrated by powerful political figures. Torn between personal honor and loyalty to his country, and with the fate of nations hanging in the balance, Kelly has no choice but to expose the truth, no matter the cost.
Without Remorse is directed by Stefano Sollima (ZeroZeroZero), and it co-stars Jamie Bell, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Luke Mitchell. The script for the film came from Taylor Sheridan (Hell or High Water, Yellowstone) with Akiva Goldsman (A Beautiful Mind) writing the most recent draft.
The movie is set to be released on April 30th.
