Netflix is bringing Matt Damon and Ben Affleck back together for their 11th collaboration, a crime thriller titled RIP, set to premiere in Fall 2025.
Directed by Joe Carnahan (Smoking Aces), the film is inspired by real-life events and echoes classic ‘70s cop thrillers like Serpico and Heat.
What’s RIP About?
The story follows the Miami Tactical Narcotics Team, which has been waiting for justice after their captain’s murder remains unsolved for six weeks.
Acting on a tip, the team raids a cartel stash house, expecting a routine bust—only to uncover millions in cash. As greed and paranoia take hold, trust within the team fractures, while outside forces close in.
