Rebel Ridge follows the intense and emotional journey of a former soldier, Jackson (John Boyega), who finds himself caught in a violent web of corruption, betrayal, and systemic injustice. After narrowly surviving an attempt on his life, Jackson is forced to confront his past and fight for the future of his family, all while seeking revenge against the powerful elites who orchestrated the attack.

Set in the heart of the American South, the film blends high-octane action with a raw, gritty exploration of race, class, and power. As Jackson navigates through dangerous terrain, he uncovers a conspiracy that runs deeper than he could have imagined. He becomes an outlaw, a rebel, fighting against both his inner demons and a corrupt system that oppresses his community.

With an eclectic group of allies, including a tough ex-cop (Brie Larson) and a morally ambiguous activist (Michael Kenneth Williams), Jackson must make hard choices as he faces off against those who will stop at nothing to maintain their power.
