“CIVIL WAR” has been highly anticipated since its first trailer drop in December 2023. Following its world premiere at the SXSW Film Festival, the film garnered rave reviews.

The film takes audiences on a journey across a dystopian future America. A team of military-embedded journalists races against time to reach DC before rebel factions descend upon the White House.

“CIVIL WAR” is set to hit theaters and IMAX nationwide on April 12, 2024.
