God is a Bullet is director Nick Cassavetes’ upcoming thriller about a detective named Bob Hightower, who discovers that a satanic cult has not only murdered his ex-wife, but has also kidnapped his daughter. Furthermore, official police investigations into the crime yield zero results, so Bob takes matters into his own hands, quitting the force and infiltrating the cult on his own. Along the way, he finds help in Case Hardin, an escapee of the cult; together, they go deeper into the cult as they try to find Bob’s daughter.

God is a Bullet is adapted from the novel of the same name by Boston Teran, and, per Looper, entered production in May 2021. As of right now, no release date has been set for the film, but Collider released the film’s official first images in June 2021. In addition to its thrilling plot, of course, one of the major draws of Cassavetes’ film is surely the ensemble cast. Featuring familiar names like Jamie Foxx and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, fans will be in for a treat. Until we hear more about the film, here’s a look at the God is a Bullet cast, and other roles you’ve seen the actors play.
