Hunting Season 2025

The 2025 action-crime-drama film Hunting Season, directed by RJ Collins and written by Adam Hampton, follows the story of Bowdrie (Mel Gibson), a rugged survivalist with a shadowy past, living a secluded and disciplined life off the grid with his sharp, independent teenage daughter, Tag (Sofia Hublitz), in the remote woods of Oklahoma. Their quiet existence is shattered when Tag discovers a badly injured, near-death young woman named January (Shelley Hennig) near the riverbank. Despite Bowdrie’s strong instinct to avoid outsiders and the inherent danger they bring, he and Tag take January in and tend to her wounds. As January recovers, the truth emerges: she and her best friend were kidnapped and tortured for information about a former gang associate, Jensen, by a ruthless criminal named Alejandro (Jordi Mollà) and his violent drug cartel, "The Brotherhood." January barely survived a shooting and being dumped in the river, while her friend was killed. This act of refuge draws Alejandro's relentless pursuit directly to their cabin, forcing Bowdrie to confront his past and use his finely-honed, lethal skills to protect Tag and the newly found family member. The film explores themes of survival, redemption, the strength of a found family, and the moral cost of violence, culminating in an inevitable and cathartic final showdown, with the father-daughter bond tested by hard truths and the looming threat. The main cast features Mel Gibson as the survivalist Bowdrie, Shelley Hennig as January, Sofia Hublitz as Tag, and Jordi Mollà as the psychotic gangster Alejandro. The film was directed by RJ Collins and written by Adam Hampton. Regarding box office and streaming worldwide, Hunting Season received a limited domestic theatrical release in the United States on December 5, 2025, by Samuel Goldwyn Films, with a simultaneous Early / Simultaneous Video-on-Demand (VOD) release on the same date. International limited releases, such as in Russia (CIS), were scheduled for January 8, 2026. Read More
