Narrative

A pilot transports an air marshal who is escorting a fugitive to trial. As they traverse the Alaskan wilderness, tensions rise and trust is tested, as not everyone on board is who they seem. Mel Gibson has only directed five feature films since his 1993 debut The Man Without a Face. He often takes long breaks between films; Hacksaw Ridge came out seven years ago. By the time Gibson gets to Flight Risk, he was already in pre-production on The Passion of the Christ: Resurrection, a sequel to his 2004 box office hit. Pilot: Need a pilot?
