The legendary, multi-talented Japanese celebrity Takeshi Kitano (Outrage Coda, Battle Royale, Hana-Bi) is heading back to bloodshed with Amazon MGM Studios’ Broken Rage, an upcoming thriller he not only directs, but also stars in.
The first half of Broken Rage follows a hitman, Nezumi (Kitano), fighting for his survival when he’s caught between the police and yakuza. But in the second half, the gritty crime-action thriller takes an unexpected turn, evolving into a self-parodying comedy that retells the same story with a captivatingly humorous touch (via FCS).
The film also stars Tadanobu Asano (Kate), Nao Omori (R100), Shidō Nakamura (Monster), Hidetoshi Nishijima (Mozu: The Movie), Hakuryu (The Good, The Bad, The Weird), Takashi Nishina (Outrage Coda) and So Kaku (Sanctuary).
We expect a Trailer to pop soon, given its 2025 release date. Until then, check out some official stills from the film below:
I wonder if it’ll get a theatrical release or go straight-to-Prime.
Does Prime usually do theatrical movies first? or at the same time?
Depends on the movie.
