THE GUNMAN (2025) – One Shot Can Haunt Forever. One Man Can End It All.

He walked away from the crosshairs. But they never left him

The Gunman (2025) marks the gritty return of Sean Penn’s elite sniper, Jim Terrier, in a neo-noir thriller that goes deeper into the politics of blood, betrayal, and redemption. Set years after the events of the 2015 original, this sequel brings a sharper edge, a deadlier conspiracy, and a man trying to outshoot both his enemies and his past.

Terrier has disappeared from the grid, living off the coast of Portugal in self-imposed exile—his hands still steady, but his mind unraveling from trauma and regret. But when a journalist exposing secret arms deals tied to a shadow U.N. faction is assassinated using Terrier’s signature method, the hunter becomes the hunted once again. Framed for a crime he didn’t commit—and pulled back into a world he swore off—Jim must follow a trail of bullets through Africa, Europe, and the halls of global power.

At the center of it all is a mysterious arms broker known only as “Basilisk,” whose reach spans warlords, diplomats, and private militias. As Terrier digs deeper, the line between assassin and activist blurs. And in the crosshairs: a young girl who reminds him too much of the life he never had.

Directed by Pierre Morel (Taken, Peppermint), The Gunman (2025) blends stripped-down espionage with brutal hand-to-hand combat and sniper realism. This is not a superhero spy movie—it’s a hard-hitting, morally complex story of a man whose only way forward is through the worst of his past.

Because the problem with ghosts isn’t that they haunt you.
It’s that they aim back.
