American Assassin

While on vacation in sunny Spain, Mitch Rapp decides to propose to his girlfriend. Their joyous moment is cut short when tragedy strikes just moments after her joyful acceptance.

A jihadist cell launches a deadly assault on unsuspecting tourists, resulting in the tragic death of Mitch's girlfriend. This attack is designed to cause immense grief to Americans, igniting Mitch's fierce desire for vengeance.

Mitch, devastated by the loss of his girlfriend, channels his grief into intense physical training. Unbeknownst to him, the U.S. government is closely monitoring his progress, intrigued by his potential.

Irene Kennedy, a skilled CIA agent, sees potential in Mitch's abilities and recruits him into a covert 'black ops' unit. She introduces him to Stan Hurley, a seasoned operative, for rigorous, advanced training.

Mitch and Stan travel to Istanbul, where they are joined by CIA operative Annika. Under the guise of a newlywed couple, they are tasked with thwarting a plot involving jihadists constructing a nuclear bomb.

As the mission progresses, Mitch faces unexpected challenges that require quick thinking and clever improvisation. Despite disobeying direct orders, his actions begin to shift the tide of their operation.

During their mission, Mitch and Stan discover that Ghost, a mercenary with connections to Stan's past, has aligned himself with their enemies. This revelation complicates their operation and intensifies the stakes.

Tensions escalate as it becomes clear that Annika is secretly working with the Iranian government. This betrayal adds another layer of danger to their already precarious mission.

The operation booms into a joint effort between the CIA and Mossad, the Israeli intelligence service, as they strive to counteract the jihadist threat. Coordinating their resources becomes crucial for success.

As tensions peak, a thrilling chase ensues, culminating in an explosive climax. Mitch takes decisive action to protect his country, showcasing his resolve and training.

In a critical moment, Mitch manages to throw the nuclear bomb overboard, ensuring it detonates safely in the ocean. This decisive move prevents a catastrophe and marks a significant turning point in his mission.

In the aftermath of the bomb's explosion, an Iranian military official publicly blames the United States for his country's troubles. This sets the stage for future conflicts and highlights the war's complexities.

Unbeknownst to the Iranian official, Mitch is lurking nearby in a hidden elevator. This moment emphasizes his transformation into 'the American Assassin' and hints at potential future confrontations.
