Domestic terror attacks are uncommon in the United States, so the Boston Marathon bombing came as a shock to the nation, followed by a tense manhunt for those responsible. Now, those events will be dramatized in film with Patriots Day, following Mark Wahlberg as a composite character of several police officers caught up in the incident.

Patriots Day will have a limited US release in LA, Boston, and NYC this 21 December, followed by a wide release 13 January, 2017.
