A Suspiciously Relaxed Pilot

This revelation adds a layer of tension as it dawns on Winston and Madelyn that Booth may have eliminated the original pilot. With no option but to work together, they must navigate their precarious situation.
An Intriguing Synopsis
The official synopsis describes Flight Risk as a high-stakes suspense thriller, teasing a twisty narrative involving three main characters. It features Academy Award nominee Mark Wahlberg as the duplicitous pilot transporting an Air Marshal (Dockery) and a fugitive (Grace) across the Alaskan wilderness. As tensions rise, trust is pushed to its limits because no one on board is who they seem.

Meanwhile, Mark Wahlberg’s extensive filmography speaks for itself, with notable performances in movies like The Fighter, and Uncharted.
