The Big Picture Netflix is getting ready to drop another heart-pounding film on its audiences, as the streaming service has announced that its upcoming thriller Rebel Ridge will begin streaming on the platform on September 6. Ahead of the film's release, Netflix also revealed a series of first-look photos at the project, which stars Aaron Pierre as a former U.S. Marine who becomes entangled in a small-town conspiracy while trying to help out his family.
Rebel Ridge will star Pierre as Terry Richmond, who enters the town of Shelby Springs on a simple but urgent mission — post bail for his cousin and save him from imminent danger, according to a synopsis of the film from Netflix.

Boyega's casting in the film was announced in 2019, but a few years later it was revealed that he had dropped out of the project.
Rebel Ridge is a co-production between Bonneville Pictures and Filmscience, and Saulnier produced the film in addition to writing and directing. Additional producers include Anish Savjani, Neil Kopp, and Vincent Savin, while Daniel Jason Heffner, Macon Blair and Louise Lovegrove executive produce.
