If you need a new gritty thriller to add to your weekend watchlist, the official trailer for Badland Rising has just arrived. Originally highlighted by IGN South Africa, the upcoming film follows Dave, a former soldier working grueling construction shifts to save his family's farm. Just as he prepares to finally reunite with his wife and son, his plans are completely derailed by a violent encounter with the aftermath of a botched mob robbery.
Naturally, things spiral quickly from there. While fleeing the immediate danger, Dave ends up with a bag of cash he definitely did not ask for, which instantly puts a massive target on his back. The movie stars Jake Ryan, Nathan Phillips, Steve Mouzakis, Robert Rabiah, and Jeremy Lindsay Taylor, bringing together a recognizable cast of rugged genre veterans. Written and directed by Blaire Moore and produced by a broad team including Dru Brown and Brett Kennedy, the project leans hard into classic survival and crime tropes.
