Tin Soldier (2025)

Directed by Brad Furman, Tin Soldier is a relentless action thriller that fuses high-octane combat with a pulse-pounding story of loyalty, vengeance, and redemption. At its core is Nash Cavanaugh (Scott Eastwood), a former special forces operative whose life has been defined by sacrifice — and whose latest mission may be his last.
Haunted by betrayal and driven by a personal vendetta, Nash sets his sights on Bokushi (Jamie Foxx), a shadowy, charismatic leader whose influence stretches far beyond the battlefield. Bokushi has ensnared disillusioned U.S. military veterans in an unforgiving training regime, molding them into a private army — loyal only to him and ready to execute his ruthless vision. For Nash, dismantling Bokushi’s network isn’t just about justice… it’s about preventing an unthinkable threat from being unleashed on the world.
The odds shift when Nash is joined by Emmanuel Ashburn (Robert De Niro), a battle-hardened military strategist with decades of experience and a reputation for never backing down. Ashburn’s precision and authority balance Nash’s raw intensity, but their alliance is anything but simple — each man carries secrets, scars, and a history that could either unite them or tear their mission apart.
Their journey takes them through a gauntlet of deadly trials: infiltrating heavily fortified compounds, surviving coordinated ambushes, and outmaneuvering Bokushi’s most loyal and lethal followers. Every step deeper into enemy territory uncovers darker truths — about Bokushi’s plans, about the men who serve him, and about the sacrifices Nash and Ashburn will have to make to see the mission through.
Bolstered by a powerhouse supporting cast — Nora Arnezeder, Joey Bicicchi, John Leguizamo, Shamier Anderson, Rita Ora, Yul Vazquez, and Saïd Taghmaoui — the film balances explosive action with emotional depth. Each performance adds texture to the story, showing the human cost of war and the thin line between heroism and obsession.
Tin Soldier is more than a barrage of expertly choreographed combat sequences. It’s a story of courage under fire, of the moral compromises made in the name of justice, and of the soldiers who carry the burden long after the battle ends. With its high stakes, tense pacing, and thematic weight, it delivers a gripping, unforgettable cinematic experience for fans of intense military thrillers.
