One Battle After Another

Some search for battle, others are born into it...

In one of the most lauded films of 2025, renowned filmmaker PT Anderson (THE MASTER, THERE WILL BE BLOOD) casts Leonardo DiCaprio as Bob, a washed-up revolutionary who lives in a state of stoned paranoia, surviving off-grid with his spirited and self-reliant daughter, Willa. When his evil nemesis resurfaces and Willa goes missing, the former radical scrambles to find her as both father and daughter battle the consequences of their pasts. With Benicio Del Toro, Chase Infiniti, Sean PennTeyana Taylor, Regina Hall.

“‘One Battle After Another’ hurtles into the present without compromising Anderson’s sense of fractured, constantly rearranged, weirdly personal American history.” (AV Club)

“The excellent performances of Leonardo D iCaprio and Benicio Del Toro bring a deep sense of humanism to two characters who, given the dramatic tone employed, always run the risk of coming across as caricatured stereotypes.” (Los Angeles Times)

“PT Anderson elicits memorable inflections of dialogue, intent glances, brazen thrashes of energy and outbursts of fury from his charismatic cast, making “One Battle After Another” a feast of inspired and dedicated acting.” (The New Yorker)
