The Rip Trailer and Poster Released by Netflix
Netflix has released the official trailer and poster for The Rip, the new crime thriller from writer-director Joe Carnahan (Narc, Smokin’ Aces). Starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, the film will begin streaming on Netflix on January 16, 2026.
The movie has been rated R by the Motion Picture Association (MPA) for strong sexual content, violence, and language.
The Rip is officially described as follows: “Upon discovering millions in cash in a derelict stash house, trust among a team of Miami cops begins to fray. As outside forces learn about the size of the seizure, everything is called into question, including who they can rely on.”
The cast also includes Steven Yeun, Teyana Taylor, Sasha Calle, and Catalina Sandino Moreno, with Scott Adkins and Kyle Chandler.
“In Miami, you have to count the money on-site, so that everybody knows how much is there,” said Matt Damon. “They know that it’s almost certainly cartel money that belongs to very dangerous people who are probably going to come get it.
“They’re on the clock, and they have to start thinking of defending where they are because they can’t just leave.”
Ben Affleck added, “It begs the question: What do you do when faced with this massive temptation? What does that mean? What’s it like to see that up close? And then also, who do you trust?’
The Netflix film is produced by Artists Equity, which is the artist-led studio Damon and Affleck founded in 2022.
The film’s story is by Joe Carnahan and Michael McGrale. Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Dani Bernfeld, and Luciana Damon are the producers. Kevin Halloran and Michael Joe are the executive producers for Artists Equity.
Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have previously appeared together in films like School Ties (1992), Good Will Hunting (1997), Dogma (1999), Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001), Jersey Girl (2004), Jay and Silent Bob Reboot (2019), The Last Duel (2021), and Air (2023).
