The Rip Trailer: Damon and Affleck Lead Gritty Miami Action Thriller on Netflix

Netflix has just dropped the full official trailer for The Rip, a high-octane action thriller streaming globally starting January 16, 2026. Directed by Joe Carnahan, known for his work on Shadow Force, The Grey, and Smokin’ Aces, the film promises a tense, gritty ride into corruption, greed, and betrayal in Miami.

The trailer opens with the tagline, “There’s snitches in every division…”, immediately signaling that no one is safe in this world of cops, criminals, and temptation. The story follows a team of Miami police officers, led by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, who stumble upon millions in cash inside a derelict stash house. What seems like a jackpot quickly becomes a ticking time bomb as trust begins to fracture within the team. When outside criminal forces discover the money, alliances are tested, and nothing—or no one—is what it seems.

 

Carnahan’s direction highlights high-stakes tension and gritty realism, while the trailer is packed with intense action sequences, daring stunts, and the moral ambiguity Carnahan is known for. Damon and Affleck bring a mix of camaraderie and distrust to their roles, making their on-screen partnership as layered as the plot itself. The supporting cast adds depth, with Steven Yeun, Teyana Taylor, Sasha Calle, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Scott Adkins, and Kyle Chandler rounding out a lineup of characters whose loyalties constantly shift.

The film explores heavy themes: temptation, betrayal, and the consequences of greed. The trailer asks the audience, “What do you do when faced with massive temptation? Who do you trust?” It’s a question that drives the narrative, as the Miami cops navigate a volatile mix of corruption and danger. Carnahan, who also co-wrote the screenplay alongside Michael McGrale, crafts a story that’s both thrilling and morally complex, combining sharp writing with pulse-pounding action.

Produced by Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Dani Bernfeld, and Luciana Damon, The Rip showcases the best of modern action thrillers, balancing adrenaline-fueled sequences with character-driven storytelling. Fans of Carnahan’s previous work will recognize his signature style: fast pacing, layered characters, and high tension, all set against the sun-soaked but dangerous streets of Miami.

With Netflix making it globally available, the movie is poised to reach a massive audience, especially with the star power of Damon and Affleck, whose friendship and on-screen chemistry bring authenticity to the morally ambiguous world of The Rip. The trailer suggests an electrifying mix of heist-style plotting, betrayals, and explosive action—a promising addition to Netflix’s growing slate of original thrillers.

Don’t miss it: The Rip will stream worldwide on Netflix starting January 16, 2026.
