RAID 3: REBIRTH (2024)

The Raid is a 2011 Indonesian action thriller film written, directed, and edited by Gareth Evans. The film stars Iko Uwais, who previously worked with Evans on another action film, Merantau, released in 2009. In the film, an elite squad is tasked with infiltrating a high-rise building run by a ruthless drug lord in the slums of Jakarta; among them is Rama (played by Uwais), a veteran member of the team.

After its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), The Raid received positive reviews from critics. The film’s name was changed to The Raid: Redemption in the United States as distributor Sony Pictures Classics was unable to secure the rights to the тιтle; it also allowed Evans to plan future тιтles in the series. The American release of the film features a soundtrack composed by Mike Shinoda and Joseph Trapanese. It was released in the United States on DVD and Blu-ray on August 14, 2012. A sequel, The Raid 2, was released in 2014. Both films depict the traditional Indonesian martial art of pencak silat, with fight choreography directed by Uwais and Yayan Ruhian. A third film was considered, but Evans decided not to pursue the project.
