REBEL RIDGE: Filmmaker Jeremy Saulnier Reveals Official First Look and Release Date with Stars Aaron Pierre, Don Johnson, and AnnaSophia Robb

Acclaimed director Jeremy Saulnier returns with his most explosive thriller yet, Rebel Ridge, on September 6, 2024, to Netflix worldwide.

The movie stars Aaron Pierre of The Underground Railroad in the role of Terry Richmond, arriving in the desolate town of Shelby Springs with a rather simple brief: to spring his cousin out of jail. Fate, however, has a different plan for Terry, pitting him in a bloody battle with the law, embodied by the vicious Sheriff Sandy Burne, portrayed by iconic actor Don Johnson. When his life savings are confiscated by authorities, he is reluctantly pushed to stand up against a corrupt police force that has gripped the town in its clutches.

The feisty clerk of court, Summer McBride—played by AnnaSophia Robb of The Carrie Diaries—assists the intriguing plot as both join forces to uncover whatever dark conspiracy lurks at Shelby Springs. As things start getting tough for him, his mysterious past emerges, and Terry has to fall back on the mysterious skills he had long buried. It becomes a multi-pronged mission: taking apart the dirty department, justice for his family, and keeping Summer safe from the rising danger.

Rebel Ridge will unfold as a riveting exposé on morality and the corrosive influence of corruption, against a pulsating action-Edge of your seat suspense. Directed by the visionary filmmaker behind some critically acclaimed gems like Green Room and Blue Ruin, Saulnier weaves a hard-hitting human story with a turbo-charged narrative.

The supporting cast includes several familiar names and faces, including David Denman from TV’s The Office, Emory Cohen of The OA, Steve Zissis of Togetherness, Zsané Jhé of The Handmaid’s Tale, Dana Lee of Widows, and seasoned talent James Cromwell of L.A. Confidential.
