Premiering on January 16, 2026, the upcoming Netflix movie is directed by Joe Carnahan (The Grey) and boasts a robust cast including Damon, Affleck, Steven Yeun, Teyana Taylor, Kyle Chandler, Sasha Calle, Néstor Carbonell, and Scott Adkins.
This marks the first collaboration between the leading actors since 2023’s Air; however, they have co-produced multiple movies, including Small Things Like These, The Instigators, The Accountant 2, and the upcoming Kiss of the Spider Woman.
The official movie description reads: “A group of Miami cops discovers a stash of millions in cash, leading to distrust as outsiders learn about the huge seizure, making them question who to rely on.”

The trailer opens to a typical drug bust, but the crew eventually finds a stash of $20 million. Damon’s character jokes that “it would be so much easier if we just stole this money,” which gives Affleck’s character an idea.
With more time spent in the house, more gets out of control, which creates a tense, thrilling experience for moviegoers. And with more characters arriving on the scene, it becomes even more complicated.
“I’ve always been a big fan of the cop film,” Joe Carnahan says when explaining the film. He mentions that he enjoys diving into the question of “Are we the good guys?”
Carnahan says he hopes The Rip can be a reminder that “there are good people in the world. They want to do good, they want to help people, they want to be kind, they want to be compassionate, they want to be empathetic… I think it’s a good time for that message.”
With the official The Rip trailer now released, be sure to mark your calendars for January 16, 2026, to stream this movie on Netflix.
