Set in an alternate present-day where humans, orcs, elves and fairies have been coexisting since the beginning of time, this action-thriller directed by David Ayer (Suicide Squad, End of Watch, writer of Training Day) follows two cops from very different backgrounds. Ward, a human (Will Smith), and Jakoby, an orc (Joel Edgerton), embark on a routine night patrol that will alter the future of their world as they know it. Battling both their own personal differences as well as an onslaught of enemies, they must work together to protect a young female elf and a thought-to-be-forgotten relic, which in the wrong hands could destroy everything.

Bright hits Netflix on December 22nd and also stars Kenneth Choi, Brad William Henke, Andrea Navedo, Veronica Ngo and Alex Meraz; Ayer, Landis, Eric Newman and Bryan Unkeless all produced the project.

Originally published October 18, 2017. Updated November 30, 2022.
