“A gripping thriller with as much heart and soul as sound and fury.”

Taron Egerton’s “unforgettable” film She Rides Shotgun has just landed on Prime Video and is available to stream now. The 2025 crime thriller stars Egerton as Nate, a newly-released ex-con who must protect his estranged 10-year-old daughter Polly, who has been marked for death by Nate’s enemies.

Picking her up from school as she waits for her mother, Nate takes Polly on the run, cutting and dying her hair to evade an Amber Alert that has been issued for her.

On the road, Nate has to fight to keep Polly alive as he is pursued by members of his former gang who have put a hit out on his family.

If you fancy checking it out, She Rides Shotgun is now available to watch on Prime Video for all subscribers after being added to the streaming service today. If you’re not a subscriber, you can take advantage of Amazon Prime’s 30-day free trial to watch it for free.

Directed by Nick Rowland, the film’s script was penned by Ben Collins, Luke Piotrowski and Jordan Harper — who wrote the novel which it is based on.

She Rides Shotgun currently holds an 86% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics praising Egerton and his young co-star Ana Sophia Heger’s performances.

The Los Angeles Times wrote in their review: “The real surprise here is Heger, who, at 11 years old, takes on a complicated role with absolute conviction,” while Vulture described the film as “unforgettable,” adding that Heger “is a true discovery”.

NPR wrote: “Egerton is ripped and terrifying as a father whose very existence seems to put his daughter in danger; and Heger is flat-out terrific as a child who proves as resourceful and canny as she is vulnerable.”

“Director Nick Rowland hotwires a familiar scenario and puts pedal to the metal in a gripping thriller with as much heart and soul as sound and fury,” penned Variety.

Meanwhile, Egerton is making waves with Netflix thriller Apex alongside Charlize Theron.

Theron stars as an adrenaline junkie rock climber who “finds out that nature isn’t the only dangerous element out to get her when she sets out on an expedition in the wild,” while Egerton will play a psychopath who stalks her.
