Like the rest of the films in the series, it’s been slapped with an R-rating for sequences of grisly bloody violence and torture, pervasive language, some sexual references, and brief drug use.

It stars Chris Rock as Zeke with Samuel L. Jackson as Marcus, Max Minghella as William Schenk, and Marisol Nichols as Capt. Angie Garza. Lionsgate will unleash it on May 21, 2021.
