The intense, real-life storyline follows Glass’ quest for survival in the American wilderness after he is left for dead by his hunting team after being brutally attacked by a bear.
His injuries allow John Fitzgerald (Tom Hardy) to take over, and that includes murdering’s Glass’s “half-breed son” right in front of him and abandoning Glass in a shallow grave to die. Guided by sheer will and the love of his family, Glass must navigate a vicious winter in a relentless pursuit to live and find redemption.
Oscar-winning Birdman director Alejandro G Iñárritu’s new film has seen members of its crew fired, extras injured, and its producer banned from set.
