Narrative

A pilot transports a flight officer with 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 debut The Man Without a Face in 1993. He often takes long breaks between films; Hacksaw Ridge was released seven years ago. Before Gibson landed Flight Risk, he was already in pre-production on The Passion of the Christ: Resurrection, the sequel to his 2004 box office hit. Pilot: Do You Want a Pilot?
