Amazon MGM Studio shared the first trailer for Chris Pratt’s upcoming sci-fi thriller Mercy, which is directed by Timur Bekmambetov and produced by Charles Roven (Oppenheimer).
Set in the near future when capital crime has increased, Mercy, penned by Marco van Belle, casts Pratt as a detective who is accused of murdering his wife and forced to prove his innocence in front of the Mercy Capital Court.
Powered by artificial intelligence, the court forces his character to prove his innocence above a certain threshold and he must do so in a specific amount of time.
As Pratt’s detective reveals, he helped create the Mercy program so he knows how it works. He must use the high-tech tools to solve the mystery and find out who killed his wife before he’s executed himself. The footage showed Pratt’s character fighting for his life in some tense tech scenes and against the backdrop of a futuristic criminal system.
The movie also stars Rebecca Ferguson, Annabelle Wallis, Kali Reis, Chris Sullivan, Kylie Rogers, Jeff Pierre, Rafi Gavron, Jamie McBride and Kenneth Choi.
The movie will be released on July 23rd, 2026.
