In the photo, Matt is wearing an official police uniform and sitting beside Ben. The pair have serious expressions on their faces and are focused on something taking place outside the frame.
Here’s a synopsis of the movie: “Upon discovering millions in cash in a derelict stash house, trust among a team of Miami cops begins to fray. As outside forces learn about the size of the seizure, everything is called into question — including who they can rely on.”
“RIP came out of a deeply personal experience that my friend went through, both as a father and as head of tactical narcotics for the Miami Dade police department,” director and writer Joe Carnahan told Tudum. “It’s inspired in part by his life and then, by my enduring love for those classic ‘70′s cop thrillers that really valued the character and interpersonal relationships and became touchstones of that era — films like Serpico and Prince Of The City and more recently, Michael Mann‘s Heat.”
It also stars Steven Yeun, Teyana Taylor, Catalina Sandino, Sasha Calle, Nestor Carbonell, Lina Esco, Scott Adkins and Kyle Chandler.
The movie is expected to premiere in the fall of 2025. We’ll update you as we learn more!
