Legionnaire is a 2022 American epic science fiction action film written, co-produced, and directed by Neill Blomkamp, based on the novel of the same name by Jason Anspach and Nick Cole. It is the first installment in the Galaxy's Edge film series. The film stars Vin Diesel, Liv Tyler, Billy Crudup, Morgan Freeman, Sharlto Copley, Tika Sumpter, Matt Damon, and Jordana Brewster. It is set in the year 2047, where Sgt. Cohen Cchun (Diesel) must lead a group of survivors, including Bryla Overton (Tyler) and Corbett Frank (Crudup), while also coming into conflict with cyber-terrorist Salazar Amand (Copley) and protecting the survivors from him. The film suffered a difficult production following a series of critical and commercial failures in Blomkamp's career. The production involved several replacement directors until Blomkamp was hired in 2021. Legionnaire was released to critical acclaim, with critics praising the film's bright tone, direction, cinematography, action sequences, respect to its source material, the emotional weight of the story, screenplay, visual effects, style, and Bear McCreary's score, as well as Diesel, Tyler, Crudup, Copley and Freeman's performances. It also grossed over $1 billion worldwide and became Blomkamp's highest-grossing film in his career. A sequel entitled Galactic Outlaws was released 2 years later.
