Mason Gooding is becoming quite busy! From Scream to this action film, he's building a solid career. Looking forward to seeing him in different genres. The premise sounds entertaining for a weekend watch 🍿

Shooting in Spain must be beautiful! But why do Hollywood films always show cartels as the villains? There are so many other interesting antagonists they could explore. Still, the marine-turned-student concept is intriguing.

As someone who enjoys action films, this sounds like a fun premise! College kids, cartel, former marine - all the elements for an entertaining thriller. Hope they handle the PTSD aspect with sensitivity 🤞

Good to see Mason getting more lead roles. He was good in the Scream franchise. The combination of action and psychological elements (PTSD) could make this more than just a typical action flick. Will definitely check it out when it releases!

Interesting that he's 25 playing a freshman! Hollywood age casting never changes 😄 But seriously, the film sounds like it could be a good mix of action and character development. Hope it delivers!
