Kerry Washington and Omar Sy star as a powerful couple in the new action film "Shadow Force," which opens in theaters this weekend. Directed by Joe Carnahan, the movie tells the story of Kyrah (Washington) and Isaac (Sy), who were once leaders of a special forces unit. Their lives take a dramatic turn when they fall in love and must go into hiding to protect their young son from their former teammates, who are now hunting them down.
The film features a strong supporting cast, including Mark Strong, Oscar nominee Da’Vine Joy Randolph, and rapper Cliff "Method Man" Smith. With its blend of action and romance, "Shadow Force" aims to captivate audiences looking for an exciting cinematic experience.
"Shadow Force" is set to be released in U.S. theaters on Friday, May 9. For those eager to catch the film, showtimes can be found on Fandango. At this time, it is not available for streaming or online viewing.
As for future availability, "Shadow Force" is a Lionsgate release. Recent Lionsgate films have made their way to Netflix after about two and a half months in theaters. If this trend continues, viewers might see "Shadow Force" on Netflix around late July or early August 2025. However, it will also be available for purchase on Amazon Prime Video once it is released for digital sale and rental.
In addition, there is a possibility that "Shadow Force" could stream on Starz later this year due to Lionsgate’s ongoing partnership with the platform. However, the release timeline for Lionsgate films on Starz has been inconsistent, so fans may need to wait a while longer for that option.
For now, the best way to experience "Shadow Force" is to catch it in theaters. The film promises to deliver both thrilling action and a heartfelt love story, making it a must-see for fans of the genre.
