Blackwatch is a 2025 American dystopian superhero film based on Jaxon Harmon's superhero team of the same name, produced by Legendary Pictures, The Stone Quarry, and RatPac-Dune Entertainment and distributed by Lionsgate Films. It is the first installment in the Blackwatch film series. Directed by Ruben Fleischer from a screenplay by Zack Snyder and David S. Goyer, the film features an ensemble cast that consists of Dove Cameron, Rina Sawayama, Ethan Hawke, Omari Hardwick, Jude Law, and Michael Fassbender as the title characters, alongside Antonio Banderas, Michael Shannon, with Laurence Fishburne, and Anthony Hopkins. In the film, set in a dystopian world where many superheroes are actually corrupt and unreasonable beneath their public images, a pair of Right-wingers, joined by a former human turned alien, reluctantly team up to destroy an Artificially Intelligent entity created by the public heroes called "Peacekeeper", forming the most unlikely heroic team in the process. Blackwatch premiered in New York City on November 11th, 2025, and opened in theaters on December 6th. The film received positive reviews from critics and audiences, who praised its visuals, style and action sequences, along with the effective use of its 3-hour runtime, performances (particularly Cameron and Sawayama), execution and Hans Zimmer's musical score. It was also a box-office success, grossing $881 million at the worldwide box-office. A sequel is in development.
