From Resident Evil to Monster Hunter, Ultraviolet to The Fifth Element, audiences have long embraced the high-octane, world-saving intensity that defines a Milla Jovovich performance. The genre staple returns once again, this time with a darker, more intimate sci-fi action thriller that leans into survival, legacy, and the cost of war.
Set in a ravaged future, Worldbreaker unfolds after the rise of the Breakers—monstrous beings that infect and grotesquely transform their victims. When the outbreak decimates the male population first, women are left to lead the fight for humanity’s survival. Among them is Willa’s mother, one of the conflict’s most formidable warriors, while Willa herself is raised in isolation by her father, a hardened veteran of the war.
Hiding on a remote island, Willa’s father trains her relentlessly, preparing her for a world he hopes she’ll never have to fully enter. Their fragile existence is disrupted when a mysterious young girl washes ashore. Starved for connection and normalcy, Willa secretly shelters the stranger—only to discover that trust comes with consequences. As the truth behind the girl’s arrival surfaces, danger follows close behind, and the Breakers are not far.
With the threat closing in, Willa is forced to put years of survival training to the test, stepping out of the safety of the shadows and into the reality of the war that shaped her childhood. What follows is a tense, character-driven battle for survival that blends monster-movie stakes with emotional urgency.
Directed by Brad Anderson (The Machinist, The Call), Worldbreaker delivers a pulse-pounding blend of sci-fi and action while grounding its spectacle in themes of sacrifice, resilience, and identity. At its core, the film is not just about monsters and survival—it’s about inheritance, courage, and a young woman discovering what she’s willing to fight for in a world already broken.
