Teaming up with fellow SEAL Karen Greer (Jodie Turner-Smith) and shady CIA agent Robert Ritter (Jamie Bell), Kelly sets out on a mission to avenge his family's death and nobody is going to get in his way. They tried to kill him too, but failed – and they're about to regret it. Instead, Kelly finds himself out for revenge when a squad of Russian soldiers kill his wife and unborn child in retaliation for a top-secret operation. We'd watch Michael B Jordan in anything, but it won't be a surprise to know the movie isn't about the perils of fatherhood and nappy changes. When we meet him in Without Remorse though, he's just an elite Navy SEAL called John Kelly who's set to retire, with his wife about to give birth to their daughter. Previously played by the likes of Willem Dafoe and Liev Schreiber in Jack Ryan movies, John Clark is a key character in the Tom Clancy Ryanverse. He'll be hoping for more luck with the start of a new franchise in Without Remorse – or if you prefer the longer name, Tom Clancy's Without Remorse – which sees him bring a new version of John Clark to the screen. Michael B Jordan is no stranger to franchises, having starred in Creed, Black Panther and the much-maligned Fantastic Fourreboot.
