​Flight Risk (2025) is a high-stakes action thriller directed by Mel Gibson, featuring Mark Wahlberg, Michelle Dockery, and Topher Grace. The film unfolds over the Alaskan wilderness, where a routine prisoner transport spirals into a deadly game of deception and survival.​ U.S. Marshal Madolyn Harris (Michelle Dockery) is assigned to escort Winston (Topher Grace), a mob accountant turned informant, from a remote Alaskan location to testify against the powerful Moretti crime family. To facilitate their journey, they charter a small aircraft piloted by Daryl Booth (Mark Wahlberg), a seemingly affable Texan.​ As the flight progresses, tensions rise when Winston discovers inconsistencies in Daryl’s credentials, realizing that the pilot is an imposter. Daryl is, in fact, a hitman dispatched by the Morettis to eliminate Winston before he can testify. A confrontation ensues, during which Madolyn subdues Daryl and takes control of the aircraft.​ With the plane’s radio inoperative, Madolyn contacts her superior, Caroline Van Sant, via satellite phone. Caroline instructs her to keep Winston alive at all costs, revealing that the real Daryl Booth was murdered and his identity assumed by the hitman. As events unfold, Madolyn grows suspicious of Caroline’s reluctance to provide direct assistance. Further investigation uncovers that Director Coleridge, another senior official, is colluding with the Moretti family.​ As the trio battles for control of the aircraft, Daryl regains consciousness and attacks, leading to a violent struggle. Madolyn ultimately kills Daryl, ensuring Winston’s safety. Upon landing, another assassination attempt is thwarted, and Madolyn confronts Coleridge, vowing to bring him and the Morettis to justice.
