In a thrilling announcement for fans of crime dramas and A-list stars alike, Kyle Chandler is set to join forces with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in the highly anticipated Netflix feature, ‘RIP.’ Directed by the talented Joe Carnahan, this film promises to deliver not only star power but also a gripping storyline that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.

Joining Chandler, Affleck, and Damon are an impressive roster of talent including Sasha Calle, known for her role in ‘The Flash,’ Nestor Carbonell from ‘Shogun,’ Catalina Sandino Moreno, and singer-turned-actress Teyana Taylor. With such a dynamic ensemble, ‘RIP’ is shaping up to be one of Netflix’s must-watch titles.

The plot revolves around a harrowing investigation into the murder of a fellow officer. Set against the vibrant backdrop of Miami, a group of police officers makes a shocking discovery of millions of dollars hidden in a rundown stash house. As tensions rise and trust begins to erode within the team, they soon find themselves caught in a web of moral dilemmas when outside forces catch wind of the cash. The mounting pressure leads to thrilling confrontations that could have deadly consequences.

Chandler takes on the role of a DEA agent, further demonstrating his range as an actor. Known for his Emmy-winning performance as Coach Eric Taylor in 'Friday Night Lights,' Chandler has carved out a successful career, appearing in films such as ‘Godzilla: King of the Monsters’ and ‘First Man.’ He is currently garnishing attention for his role as the DC superhero Hal Jordan in HBO and DC Studios’ upcoming series ‘Lanterns,’ which is set to begin production in early 2025 in the UK.

‘RIP’ is produced by Artists Equity, the studio co-founded by Affleck and Damon, with them along with Luciana Damon and Dani Bernfeld overseeing production. The film is expected to go into production in Miami and Los Angeles later this month, allowing Chandler to fit this project into his busy schedule before stepping into the superhero world.

Additionally, fans can expect to see Chandler in the indie film ‘Anniversary,’ where he stars alongside acting heavyweights like Diane Lane and Zoey Deutch. He also recently wrapped filming on ‘Back in Action,’ a Netflix feature alongside Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz.

With Chandler's captivating performances and a stellar cast, ‘RIP’ is sure to be one of the standout films on Netflix in the near future. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting crime thriller that is already making waves in Hollywood!
