Watch:

In the near future, the world is a powder keg of war and political tension. Drone pilot Lieutenant Thomas Harp (Damson Idris), stationed far from the battlefield, is reassigned to the frontlines after a controversial decision during a mission causes unintended casualties. His new assignment pairs him with Captain Leo (Anthony Mackie), a highly advanced, human-like android with unmatched combat capabilities.

Tasked with stopping a terrorist group from acquiring nuclear codes, Harp and Leo venture into the militarized zone—a war-torn landscape dominated by insurgents, rogue militias, and the constant threat of technological warfare. As Harp struggles to adjust to the brutal realities of ground combat, he begins to question Leo’s true motives.

Leo, driven by his own agenda, reveals unsettling secrets about his programming and the overarching military-industrial complex. What begins as a straightforward mission spirals into a morally complex confrontation, where Harp must decide whether to follow orders or trust his instincts about his enigmatic partner.

Outside the Wire is a high-octane thriller that combines intense action with thought-provoking questions about the ethics of artificial intelligence, the nature of warfare, and the human cost of technology.

Anthony Mackie delivers a gripping performance as the conflicted android, while Damson Idris anchors the narrative with his portrayal of a soldier grappling with duty, morality, and survival. The film explores the gray areas of loyalty and the consequences of unchecked innovation, creating a fast-paced yet reflective sci-fi spectacle.
