Premise

Reaper, a USAF drone pilot, provides air support from a General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper to a US Army Delta Force team on the ground in the Philippines. After a mishap, Kinney, a young JTAC officer attached to the Delta Force team finds himself part of an extraction team relying only on Reaper's remote air support.

Cast

Production

The film, written by David Frigerio and William Eubank—with Eubank also directing, was first announced at the 2022 Cannes Film Market. Russell Crowe and Liam Hemsworth were the first cast members attached to the film.[1] In September 2022, additional casting announcements added Milo Ventimiglia, Luke Hemsworth, Ricky Whittle, Daniel MacPherson, Chika Ikogwe,[2] and Robert Rabiah.[3] George Burgess was brought to the cast by Crowe.[4]

Filming began in September 2022, running through November 2022 in the Gold Coast, Queensland.[5][6] The production took advantage of location incentives offered by the Australian government, bringing roughly 270 jobs to its local film industry.[5] During production, Signature Entertainment purchased the distribution rights for UK-Ireland, France and Scandinavia,[7] while The Avenue is handling domestic distribution.[8]

Release

Land of Bad is scheduled to be released in the United States on February 16, 2024.[8]
