Plot Summary

Set in a dystopian future ruled by a totalitarian regime known as The Dominion, 11 Rebels follows an elite crew of former outlaws, soldiers, and fugitives who are brought together for one suicidal mission: infiltrate the impenetrable Black Citadel to steal a weapon capable of disrupting the Dominion’s mind-control tech.

Led by war veteran Kai Mercer (John Boyega), each member of the team brings a deadly skill and a haunted past. The plan is reckless, the target is impossible, and betrayal lurks within. But they have one thing in common—they’ve got nothing left to lose.

With time ticking down and the Dominion’s enforcers closing in, the 11 Rebels must navigate a battlefield of drones, enhanced soldiers, and AI-controlled cities to spark the rebellion the world has long forgotten.
