Modern action films are what they are today thanks, at least in part, to the iconic John Woo. From his violent gangster flicks of the 1980s to the wild Nic Cage vehicle Face/Off, Woo has curated a chaotic and deeply memorable aesthetic. He’s bringing back that trademarked style for his latest film Silent Night, a Christmas revenge thriller starring Joel Kinnaman, who delivers almost no lines of dialogue throughout the entire film.
Read the full synopsis below:
From legendary director John Woo and the producer of John Wick comes this gritty revenge tale of a tormented father (Joel Kinnaman) who witnesses his young son die when caught in a gang’s crossfire on Christmas Eve. While recovering from a wound that costs him his voice, he makes vengeance his life’s mission and embarks on a punishing training regimen in order to avenge his son’s death. Full of Woo’s signature style, Silent Night redefines the action genre with visceral, thrill-a-minute storytelling.
Now get your adrenaline pumping and watch the new trailer:
Woo directed the film with a script by Rober Archer Lynn. Joel Kinnaman, Scott Mescudi. Harold Torres, and Catalina Sandino Moreno star in the film.
Silent Night comes exclusively to theaters on December 1, 2023.
