Netflix Unveils Explosive Trailer For 'The Rip' Starring Ben Affleck And Matt Damon
Netflix kicks off the year 2026 with an explosive action film featuring acclaimed stars.
Netflix has released the first trailer for the crime thriller The Rip, directed by Joe Carnahan. The film re-unites Matt Damon and Ben Affleck on the big screen after their previous collaborations in films like Air and The Last Duel.
The story begins with a team of police officers in Miami raiding an abandoned building, where they find millions of dollars in cash. What starts as a spectacular discovery quickly turns into a source of distrust within the team.
As more outsiders catch wind of the haul, the situation grows increasingly grim. No one knows who to trust anymore, and tensions run high.
The Rip taps into the genre of dark, corrupt police dramas that Carnahan has previously made a name for, such as the film Narc.
In addition to Affleck and Damon, the cast includes Steven Yeun, Sasha Calle, Teyana Taylor, Nestor Carbonell, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Kyle Chandler, Scott Adkins, and Lina Esco.
The screenplay is written by Carnahan himself. The production is led by Affleck, Damon, Luciana Damon, and Dani Bernfeld, under the label Artists Equity. With this film, Affleck and Damon continue their creative collaboration, this time exclusively for Netflix. The Rip premieres on January 16, 2026, on Netflix.
