The Uprising (2026)

In plague-scarred 14th-century England, ordinary people are pushed to the breaking point by crushing taxes, political corruption, and the unchecked power of the ruling class. When a farmer known as Ploughman becomes swept into a growing rebellion against the Crown, he joins forces with radical preacher John Ball and rebel leader Wat Tyler as frustration among England’s commoners erupts into open revolt against the government of the young King Richard II.

As thousands march toward London demanding justice and an end to oppression, the uprising transforms farmers, laborers, and villagers into an army capable of challenging the most powerful institutions in England. Written and directed by Paul Greengrass, The Uprising brings the events of the 1381 Peasants’ Revolt to the screen as a visceral historical drama about resistance, sacrifice, and ordinary people discovering the power to confront a system built to keep them powerless.
