The high-octane action franchise, The Transporter, has been rebooted, introducing a fresh face to the iconic role of Frank Martin. Ed Skrein, known for his portrayal of Daario Naharis in the third season of Game of Thrones, steps into the driver’s seat for The Transporter Legacy, promising a thrilling new chapter in the world of covert deliveries and dangerous missions.
Skrein leads a dynamic cast including Ray Stevenson, Radivoje Bukvic, Gabriella Wright, Anatole Taubman, and Tatiana Pajkovic, each bringing their own intensity to the criminal underworld depicted in the film. Set against the backdrop of France’s shadowy underbelly, The Transporter Legacy re-establishes Frank Martin as the ultimate “transporter” – a highly skilled driver and mercenary for hire. His reputation is built on unwavering professionalism and a strict code: no names, no questions, and absolutely no renegotiations.
This rigid system is challenged when Frank encounters the enigmatic and formidable Anna (Loan Chabanol). Anna, a lethal femme fatale and leader of a group seeking to dismantle a ruthless Russian human trafficking ring, disrupts Frank’s meticulously controlled world. To ensure Frank’s cooperation, Anna orchestrates the kidnapping of his father (Ray Stevenson), forcing Frank into an uneasy alliance. Now, Frank and his father must team up with Anna, navigating treacherous landscapes and facing down deadly adversaries in a relentless pursuit of justice.
