Plot: What's the story about?
The storyline follows Nate (Egerton), who, after years in prison, has made some dangerous enemies, including the powerful criminal gang he worked for on the inside. Desperate for a fresh start, Nate cuts ties with his old crew upon his release from prison, but the gang retaliates by putting a hit on his family. Nate picks up Polly, his shy eleven-year-old daughter he hardly knows and goes on the run to keep her out of harm’s way. As they attempt to stay off the radar, it becomes clear that their enemies are relentless and won’t give up easily. Nate teaches Polly how to survive and watches her transform from a timid little girl into a force to be reckoned with. Nate, in turn, learns what it is to love unconditionally as he bonds with his daughter and battles for their future.

Production: What we know about She Rides Shotgun?
Key Facts
- Lionsgate and Fifth Season present, in association with Waypoint Entertainment, a Makeready and Super Frog production. 2025-07-04
- “Working on She Rides Shotgun was about honouring Jordan Harper’s brutal, beautiful novel while finding a cinematic language that could carry both its savagery and its soul. The film is about two people—strangers, really—who find a way to become a real family in the most brutal of circumstances. What moved me most was the emotional survival in it. There’s tenderness in the trauma. That’s what I wanted to explore—how love can grow even in the darkest places. Taron Egerton brought such depth and volatility to Nate, and Ana Sofia Heger blew us away with her heart and fearlessness as Polly. I’m incredibly proud of what we created together— it’s a ride, and it doesn’t let go.” - Nick Rowland, Director 2025-06-07
- “I cannot recall a happier or more soul-enriching experience than making She Rides Shotgun. It is without doubt the most tender and felt relationship I have had with an actor on screen. Ana Sophia Heger was ten when we made the film and she is nothing short of extraordinary. In Nick Rowland, I found the kind of like-minded friend and collaborator that comes along once or twice in a lifetime.” - Taron Egerton, Star and Producer 2025-06-07
- Based on the novel by Jordan Harper.
