‘The 2nd’ hit #2 on Netflix USA

Move over, The Impossible. There’s a new movie making its way to the top of Netflix’s charts. And it even stars one of our favorite actors, Ryan Phillippe.

Called ‘The 2nd’ (referencing the second amendment of the United States Constitution), the 2020 film just made its way to the number two spot on the streaming service’s list of most-watched movies, surpassing The Impossible, Easy A, Operation Christmas Drop, Mile 22, Knock Knock and Holidate. Keep reading for everything we know.
YouTube Video Preview
‘The 2nd’ follows secret-service agent, Vic Davis, on his way to pick up his estranged son, Sean, from his college campus when he finds himself in the middle of a high-stakes terrorist operation. Yikes. His son’s friend Erin Walton (the daughter of a Supreme Court Justice) is the target, and this armed gang will stop at nothing to kidnap her and use her as leverage for a pending landmark legal case.

And while some reviews (we’re looking at you Rotten Tomatoes) were less than kind to the small-budget film, we were actually fairly impressed (and entertained). In fact, The 2nd feels like a true throwback to old-school action movies featuring never-ending fight scenes and explosions. Not to mention, watching Phillippe show off his fighting skills is an added plus.

In addition to Phillippe, the action-thriller also stars Casper Van Dien (All American), Jack Griffo (Knight Squad), Lexi Simonsen (The Pyramid), Richard Burgi (General Hospital) and William Katt (The Unwanted). The film was directed by Brian Skiba, and produced by Phillippe, Geoffrey James Clark, Kirk Shaw, Daniel Grodnik, James Shavick and Josh Tessier.

So, maybe take a break from all of the Christmas movie bingeing and opt for something a little more action-packed this evening.

‘The 2nd’ Official Poster & Exclusive Trailer

Ryan Phillippe has a very particular set of skills in his new action flick, The 2nd — and ET can exclusively debut the trailer.

Phillippe plays Secret Service Agent Vic Davis, who finds himself single-handedly fighting to thwart a terrorist operation and the attempted kidnapping of a Supreme Court justice’s daughter from her college dorm. (If you were a fan of Phillippe in Shooter, then director Brian Skiba’s thriller is a perfect pic for you.)

Even better, The 2nd sees Phillippe taking on none other than Starship Troopers legend Casper Van Dien, as fists fly and bullets rain. “They came prepared” the preview teases, “but NOT. FOR. HIM.” Watch the trailer above.
