The Bounty of Ryder Part IV: Road of Redemption is a 2027 American Western action film written, co-produced, and directed by Jodie Foster and the fourth installment in the Chronicles of Charlotte Ryder film series. Produced by Legendary Pictures and The Stone Quarry and distributed by Lionsgate Films, it is a back-to-back sequel to The Bounty of Ryder Part III: Blood or High Honor and the second follow-up to be set after the events of the first film. The film stars Ryan Kiera Armstrong as Charley Ryder, alongside Piper Rubio, Matthew McConaughey, Christopher Judge, Javier Bardem, Pedro Pascal, Donald Glover, Ben Foster, Domhnall Gleeson, Leonardo DiCaprio, Laurence Fishburne, and Samuel L. Jackson. In the film, Charley must protect her adoptive daughter Maisie Arizona-Ryder and team up with her old allies and an unlikely one to hunt down a Mexican outlaw who is carrying out a massacre in Wyoming. The Bounty of Ryder Part IV: Road of Redemption opened in theaters on December 5th, 2027; the film received universal acclaim from critics and audiences for its action, performances and emotional weight, and grossed $1.01 billion worldwide at the box-office. Despite breaking even of its $260 million budget and performing more than well enough for further films, as well as becoming the franchise's second-highest-grossing film, it had several competitions that forced Lionsgate into labeling it a box-office bomb. A sequel, The Bounty of Ryder: A Journey's End — Chapter I, was released the following year, while a final film is also in development.
