Summary
Sniper: G.R.I.T. marks a passing of the torch in the Sniper franchise, with Chad Michael Collins appearing in more films than Tom Berenger.
Sniper: G.R.I.T. ensures pulse-pounding action and the much-awaited comeback of beloved characters, even without the presence of Tom Berenger and Billy Zane.
This cinematic masterpiece unravels the gripping tale of the Global Response and Intelligence Team, helmed by the proficient Brandon Beckett, as they embark on a daring mission to liberate a captive agent.
Sniper: G.R.I.T. is the 10th installment in the long-standing Sniper film series. The initial film, released in 1993, featured Tom Berenger as the main character, Master Gunnery Sergeant Tom Beckett. Eventually, Chad Michael Collins took over the franchise as Brandon Beckett, the son of Berenger's character. With the upcoming release of Sniper: G.R.I.T., Collins will have starred in more Sniper films (7) than Berenger (6), signaling the clear shift in franchise leadership.
The absence of Tom Berenger and Billy Zane in the 2022 film, Sniper: Rogue Mission, marked the first time neither of the franchise's stars appeared in a film. Sniper: G.R.I.T. seems to be continuing this trend. Screen Rant is excited to present the trailer for Sniper: G.R.I.T., despite the absence of Zane and Berenger. The trailer promises another thrilling and stylish action-packed experience, with many beloved characters making a return. Check out the trailer below:
