Netflix has dropped a new set of explosive images from Kathryn Bigelow’s latest thriller, ‘A House of Dynamite’ — and the Oscar-winning director looks set to deliver another pulse-pounding ride.

Front and centre is Idris Elba, joined by a powerhouse cast including Rebecca Ferguson, Gabriel Basso, Jared Harris, Tracy Letts, Anthony Ramos, Moses Ingram, Jonah Hauer-King, Greta Lee, and Jason Clarke.

The film kicks off when a single, unattributed missile is launched at the United States, sparking a frantic race to uncover who pulled the trigger — and whether retaliation could ignite something far more catastrophic. With government halls, military bunkers, and war rooms in play, Bigelow is setting the stage for a nerve-shredding political showdown.

Bigelow, who gave us ‘The Hurt Locker’ and ‘Zero Dark Thirty,’ is no stranger to high-stakes tension, and the early stills hint at characters caught between duty, fear, and impossible decisions. Expect ticking clocks, crackling performances, and Bigelow’s trademark grit.

‘A House of Dynamite’ hits select UK cinemas on October 3, expands globally on October 10, and detonates worldwide on Netflix on October 24.
