The highly anticipated action-thriller HAVOC, starring Tom Hardy, is set to release on April 25, 2025, exclusively on Netflix. Directed by Gareth Evans, known for his work on The Raid series, the film boasts a production budget exceeding $80 million, reflecting its grand scale and intense action sequences. The story follows a bruised detective, played by Hardy, navigating a corrupt city’s criminal underworld to rescue a politician’s estranged son after a drug deal goes wrong. The film promises a gripping narrative filled with conspiracy, betrayal, and redemption.
HAVOC has already generated significant buzz, with its trailer amassing millions of views and early test screenings describing it as a “relentless, heart-in-throat experience.” The film is a love letter to the heroic bloodshed genre, inspired by Hong Kong action films of the 1980s and 1990s. With a star-studded cast, including Forest Whitaker and Timothy Olyphant, and Evans’ signature style of fluid camerawork and jaw-dropping stunts, HAVOC is poised to be a major success.
