Premise

A U.S. Marshal escorts a government witness to trial after he is accused of getting involved with a mob boss, only to discover that the pilot who is transporting them is also a hitman that had been sent to assassinate the informant. After they subdue him, they’re forced to fly together after discovering that there are others attempting to eliminate them.

In December 2020, Jared Rosenberg's screenplay Flight Risk was voted onto the year's "Black List" of the most-liked unproduced screenplays in Hollywood.[3][4] In May 2023, it was reported that Mel Gibson would direct and Mark Wahlberg would star.[5] In January 2024, Topher Grace and Michelle Dockery joined the cast.[6]

The film is a co-production between Icon Productions and Davis Entertainment Company. It was produced in association with Media Capital Technologies (a film financing company[7]), Hammerstone Studios and Blue Rider Pictures.[8] Gibson directed and produced the film along with Bruce Davey, John Davis, and John Fox.[8]

Principal photography began in Las Vegas in June 2023.[9] Filming occurred for two days in Mesquite, Nevada in July 2023. Filming also took place in Alaska.[10] SAG-AFTRA granted the filmmakers approval to allow filming during the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.[11] Filming concluded in August 2023.[10] Wahlberg partially shaved his head each day while filming for the role of a balding pilot instead of wearing a bald cap.[12]
