Sergeant Todd is a veteran soldier for an elite group of the armed forces. After being defeated by a new breed of genetically engineered soldiers, he is dumped on a waste planet and left for dead. He soon interacts with a group of crash survivors who lead out a peaceful existence. The peace is broken as the new soldiers land on the planet to eliminate the colony, which Sergeant Todd must defend.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Written by David Peoples as a 'sidequel' to Blade Runner—Todd and his soldiers are allegedly replicants or predecessors. The universes share DNA, literally.
Kurt Russell broke his ankle during the snake pit scene and kept filming. The limp you see? Actually real.
