Henry Cavill Reunites with Guy Ritchie in In the Grey

After a long period of uncertainty surrounding its release, the new action film by Guy Ritchie, starring Henry Cavill, has finally secured an official release date. Titled In the Grey, the film marks another collaboration between the director and the actor.
In the Grey boasts an impressive ensemble cast including Jake Gyllenhaal, Eiza González, Kristofer Hivju, Fisher Stevens, and Rosamund Pike. Written and directed by Guy Ritchie, the story follows an elite covert task force operating in the shadows. When a ruthless tyrant steals assets worth billions of dollars, the team is assigned to recover the fortune. What begins as a swift, calculated operation soon spirals into all-out war and a brutal fight for survival.

The studio Black Bear has acquired the theatrical distribution rights to In the Grey and scheduled its cinema release for April 10, 2026. Lionsgate will remain involved, handling digital and pay-TV distribution.
Benjamin Kramer, President of U.S. Distribution at Black Bear, expressed his enthusiasm about partnering with Guy Ritchie, Lionsgate, and the star-studded cast. He praised Ritchie as one of the finest directors at crafting action films that are both entertaining and intense, noting that In the Grey perfectly captures the director’s signature style and sharp edge.

Beyond In the Grey, Black Bear is also set to release another Guy Ritchie project in 2026, Wife and Dog, slated for an October 23 theatrical debut and starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Anthony Hopkins.
Notably, In the Grey continues the on-screen reunion between Guy Ritchie and Henry Cavill following The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. While critics have offered mixed reviews of their past collaborations, audiences have responded positively. With In the Grey, Ritchie not only strengthens his growing partnership with Black Bear but also promises a high-energy action film that stays true to his distinctive cinematic brand.
