Jumper

In Ann Arbor, Michigan, young David Rice gifts his crush, Millie, a snow globe featuring the Eiffel Tower, symbolizing her dream of travel. This gesture sets the stage for their connection and showcases David's thoughtful nature.

A bully named Mark shatters the snow globe on the icy riverbank, breaking David's delicate moment with Millie. In an attempt to recover the globe, David falls into the icy water, leading to a life-changing incident.

After falling through the ice, David unexpectedly reappears in a local library, completely soaked. Here, he realizes he possesses a unique ability to 'Jump', allowing him to teleport instantly from one location to another.

Feeling out of place and disillusioned, David chooses to escape his life. His father, an alcoholic, believes David has drowned, marking a turning point where David is presumed dead and begins a new, reckless life.

Fast forward eight years, David lives extravagantly, leaping across continents and indulging in a life filled with luxury. However, he remains indifferent to the disasters around him, using his powers primarily for personal gain.

David's carefree life is disrupted when he is ambushed by Roland Cox, who seeks to capture him. Roland employs high-voltage cables designed to nullify David’s teleportation abilities, forcing David to fight for his freedom.

After narrowly escaping Roland, David decides to return to Ann Arbor to reconnect with Millie, who has grown up and changed. This reunion is filled with nostalgia and excitement as they seek to rekindle their bond.

Upon his return, David runs into Mark, the bully from his childhood. In a moment of retribution, David teleports Mark into a bank vault, showcasing his power and settling old scores.

Excited to reconnect further, David invites Millie on a trip to Rome using traditional travel methods. This adventure brings them closer together, although David carefully hides his past and true identity from her.

In Rome, David meets another Jumper named Griffin, who warns him about the Paladins, an extremist group hunting Jumpers. Their discussion reveals the dangers that David now faces with this new enemy.

The Paladins invade, leading to a violent confrontation filled with chaos. Griffin showcases his fighting prowess as he battles the Paladins, revealing the high stakes involved in being a Jumper.

During a desperate attempt to rescue Millie, David is captured by Italian police. Millie’s confrontation with David exposes his hidden secrets, leading to her being sent back home before David can explain.

After a series of events, David reunites with his estranged mother, Mary. She reveals critical family secrets and her own connections to the Paladin organization, adding complexity to David's quest for safety.

As tensions rise, David and Griffin face off against Roland and the Paladins in a climactic battle. Utilizing his teleporting abilities strategically, David manages to trap Roland and protect Millie.

With the threat of the Paladins diminished, David and Millie decide to embark on a new journey together. Embracing their love and shared adventures, they step into the unknown, ready to discover true freedom.
