After her drug kingpin boyfriend frames her for stealing a fortune in cartel cash, 16 year old Lydia (Erin Moriarty) goes on the run, with only one ally in this whole wide world: her perennial screw-up of a dad, John Link (Mel Gibson), who's been a drunk, a drug addict, a motorcycle outlaw, and a convict in his time, and now is determined to keep his little girl from harm and, for once in his life, do the right thing.
Blood Father is directed by French filmmaker Jean-François Richet (Assault on Precinct 13 remake). The screenplay was written by Peter Craig and Andrea Berloff, based on the novel by Peter Craig.
Blood Father hits theaters on August 25, 2016.
