Shot Caller (2017)

Shot Caller is a gritty crime drama that follows Jacob Harlon (played by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), a successful stockbroker whose life is turned upside down after a DUI accident leads to a prison sentence. To survive behind bars, Jacob quickly adapts to the brutal prison environment by joining a violent white supremacist gang.


As he rises through the ranks, Jacob transforms into “Money,” a hardened gangster who must commit increasingly serious crimes, both in and out of prison, to maintain his status and protect his family. Even after his release, he remains entangled in the gang’s grip, forced to carry out one final, deadly operation.


Tense, realistic, and emotionally charged, Shot Caller explores themes of identity, survival, and the irreversible consequences of choices made under pressure.
