Scott Adkins to Star in Guy Ritchie‑Style Action Comedy Reckless

Movieweb reports John Wick star Scott Adkins will headline Reckless, a Guy Ritchie‑style action comedy in newly released first-look images.

The images and synopsis promise "love, bullets, and tons of bad decisions" as Adkins plays a former convict on parole who must track down his share of a past heist, blending laughs with fist fights. Reckless reunites Adkins with Accident Man: Hitman’s Holiday writer Stu Small, who co-wrote the script with Matthew Robert Kelly, and is directed by first-time filmmaker Elliott Montello, who has previous credits on Mob Land and American Siege. The ensemble also includes Vinnie Jones, Nicole Dean, Kris Johnson, Dean Gaffney, Adam Deacon, Jordon Long, and Mark Strange.

Reckless does not yet have a release date, though Adkins posted on Instagram that it’s "coming very soon!" Adkins, coming off last year’s Prisoner of War and Diablo, has several other projects in the pipeline including Bedlam; the sci-fi sequel Skyline: Warpath with Iko Uwais; a sequel to One Last Shot; and The Rip, which is scheduled to be released by Netflix on January 16, 2026.
