Synopsis


After eight years away from cinema, Academy Award winning director Kathryn Bigelow (The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty) returns with the critically acclaimed explosive thriller, A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE. The chilling drama gives an excruciatingly tense portrayal of a nuclear attack on the United States with phenomenal performances from a stellar ensemble cast including, Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Gabriel Basso, Jared Harris, Tracy Letts, Anthony Ramos, Moses Ingram, Jonah Hauer-King, Greta Lee, and Jason Clarke. When a single, unattributed missile is launched at the United States, a race begins to determine who is responsible and how to respond. With a riveting script from former president of NBC News, Noah Oppenheim, and Bigelow’s masterful execution for unrelenting, nail-biting storytelling, A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE is a terrifyingly timely and sobering warning about the catastrophic potential of nuclear war.
