After a coordinated terror attack strikes Los Angeles, six federal agents from different agencies are ordered into a high-security safe house. With communications cut and the city in chaos, they begin to suspect that the mastermind behind the violence might be one of their own. As mistrust grows and deadly threats close in, survival becomes a race against both time and betrayal.
Safe House is a 2025 American action thriller directed by Jamie Marshall and written by Leon Langford. The film stars Lucien Laviscount, Hannah John-Kamen, Ethan Embry, Lewis Tan, Holt McCallany, and Adam Levy in a tense ensemble where alliances are tested, and nothing is certain.
Set in the aftermath of a brutal ambush on a high-profile convoy and a terror attack in downtown Los Angeles, the story follows six government agents who seek refuge in a secure safe house. Cut off from the outside world and under lockdown after intelligence suggests the detonator signal came from their location, the group must not only fend off threats from outside but also grapple with suspicion and secrets within their ranks. With action-packed set pieces and whodunit-style tension, Safe House blends thriller mechanics with character conflict as loyalties are tested under pressure. Distributed in the United States by Vertical and produced by Voltage Pictures and Green Light Pictures, Safe House runs approximately 90 minutes and premiered in limited theaters on October 31, 2025.
