Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

War Machine is a 2026 military science fiction action film directed, co-produced, and co-written by Patrick Hughes. It stars Alan Ritchson, Dennis Quaid, Stephan James, Jai Courtney, Esai Morales, Keiynan Lonsdale, and Daniel Webber, and follows a staff sergeant who encounters an otherworldly killing machine while on a grueling training exercise. The film was given a very limited theatrical release in Australia starting on February 12, 2026, before releasing on Netflix on March 6, 2026. The film received generally positive reviews from critics, praising it as a fun, old-school, throwback action movie despite its familiar, formulaic storyline. A sequel is in development.
