Wonder Woman’s Gal Gadot and Deadpool’s Ryan Reynolds co-star in the action thriller.
Dwayne Johnson’s latest movie Jungle Cruise has just landed in cinemas and Disney Plus Premier Access, but that’s not the last movie we’ll be seeing from The Rock this year.
The former wrestling star has wrapped filming on action-packed thriller Red Notice, which looks set to cater to the more mature side of the actor’s fanbase.
The film, directed by Johnson’s Skyscraper and Central Intelligence collaborator Rawson Marshall Thurber, will follow an FBI profiler as he teams up with two criminals from atop the most wanted list.
Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds plays a character billed as “the world’s greatest conman”, while Wonder Woman‘s Gal Gadot will take on the role of a notorious art thief.
Together, they will attempt to pull off a dangerous, globe-trotting heist, which promises to include some epic action sequences with its A-list stars, each of whom are looking at a huge $20 million pay cheque for their involvement.
Read on for all the details on Netflix‘s Red Notice, including confirmed release date, cast, plot and latest news.
Red Notice release date
CONFIRMED: Red Notice will be available to stream worldwide on Netflix from Friday 12th November, as confirmed by Dwayne Johnson on Twitter.
The film has been in the works for some time, starting life at Universal Pictures before moving over to Netflix in July 2019, with its three principal stars securing $20 million paydays in the transition (via Variety).
Filming commenced in January 2020 but was temporarily halted last year as the coronavirus pandemic took hold, resuming in September and wrapping just two months later.

Red Notice cast
Netflix has had no trouble attracting huge stars in recent years but Red Notice boasts a particularly strong line-up.
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson will play the lead role of FBI profiler Rusty, who is forced to team up with a prolific art thief played by Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman 1984) and a legendary conman portrayed by Ryan Reynolds (The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard).

The supporting cast is yet to be announced in full, but Ritu Arya (The Umbrella Academy) and Chris Diamantopoulos (Arrested Development) have reportedly bagged roles.
Red Notice plot
Plot details for Red Notice remain relatively scarce for the time being but we do know that the film will revolve around a heist being attempted by an FBI operative and two most wanted criminals.
It’s yet to be revealed exactly what they hope to steal and why but Netflix’s Head of Film Scott Stuber has described it as a “globe-trotting action-adventure film”.
The streamer has also teased that the pursuit of Gal Gadot’s art thief will be the focal point of the film, although Variety reports that the DC Comics star has the smallest role of the three lead actors.
Red Notice trailer
There’s no trailer for Red Notice just yet but, with a release date now confirmed, we could get our first look at the film in the next month or two.
Unlike more traditional Hollywood studios, Netflix is known to hold off on promoting its new titles until very close to release, which means we may not see a full trailer until September.
We’ll be keeping a close eye on Red Notice updates as they arrive, so be sure to check back to RadioTimes.com for the latest news on this Netflix epic.
