The film combines fast-paced action sequences and creative stunts with a heavy dose of nostalgia fit with all of the 90s charm of the golden era of buddy action comedies. This film is helmed by Ilya Naishuller, the filmmaker behind Hardcore Henry (2015) and Nobody (2021). The film features an all-star ensemble cast including Idris Elba, John Cena, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Carla Gugino, Jack Quaid, Stephen Root, Sarah Niles, Richard Coyle and Paddy Considine.The film reunites John Cena and Idris Elba since The Suicide Squad — but this time, they're not trying to kill each other…probably.
In the action-comedy Heads of State, the UK Prime Minister Sam Clarke (Idris Elba) and U.S. President Will Derringer (John Cena) have a not-so-friendly and very public rivalry that jeopardizes their countries' 'special relationship.' But when they become the targets of a powerful and ruthless foreign adversary—who proves more than a match for the two leaders' security forces—they are begrudgingly forced to rely on the only two people they can trust: each other.
Ultimately allied with the brilliant MI6 agent Noel Bisset (Priyanka Chopra Jonas), they must go on the run and find a way to work together long enough to thwart a global conspiracy that threatens the entire free world. The film also stars Paddy Considine, Stephen Root, Carla Gugino, Jack Quaid and Sarah Niles and is directed by Ilya Naishuller.

Criminal Justice season 4: Big update on remaining episodes. When and where to watch

Criminal Justice Season 4 has all the ingredients of a gripping legal thriller—twists, tension, and the ever-reliable Pankaj Tripathi in top form. But while the courtroom drama is heating up on-screen, a very different drama is unfolding online. Fans, who were thrilled when the new season premiered on May 29, are now fuming over JioHotstar 's weekly release strategy, which drops just one new episode every Thursday. The first three episodes were released on May 29, however, from episode 4 onwards, each episode will be released after a week to create more anticipation around the series. Unlike platforms like Netflix or Prime Video that typically release entire seasons in one go, JioHotstar's decision to stretch the fourth season week by week has led to growing frustration. Viewers took to social media to vent, saying the slow rollout is killing the thrill of the show. The new episodes will be released on the streaming app every Thursday. This means that the next episode will be released on June 12. Netizens react to weekly episode release One fan expressed their frustration on X after starting Criminal Justice Season 4, saying the initial mood was perfectly set, but the excitement quickly faded upon realising that only three episodes were available. They questioned JioHotstar's weekly release strategy, calling it less like a gripping legal thriller and more like 'episodic torture' for loyal fans eager to binge. — irfan_speak786 (@irfan_speak786) Another fan called the three-episode drop a major letdown, pointing out that waiting every Thursday for just one new episode kills the momentum and excitement of the show. — rajputabhiraj09 (@rajputabhiraj09) Echoing the sentiment, a viewer who had been waiting nearly a year for Criminal Justice Season 4 vented their frustration, slamming the weekly rollout as a disservice to loyal fans. They criticised JioHotstar and the creators for stretching the release and dragging out the experience instead of allowing viewers to immerse themselves fully in the story. — akshayjanagoud (@akshayjanagoud) About Criminal Justice season 4 The backlash is a testament to just how invested audiences are in the journey of Madhav Mishra , the soft-spoken but razor-sharp lawyer played by Pankaj Tripathi. In Season 4, he takes on a sensational murder case involving a politically influential family. What starts as a simple defence soon morphs into a courtroom chess match, with secrets, manipulation, and high-stakes drama at every turn. Directed by Rohan Sippy and produced by Applause Entertainment, the show has consistently won praise for its grounded storytelling and layered performances. Viewers can catch new episodes of Criminal Justice: Adhura Sach Season 4 every Thursday on JioHotstar.
