What's the story of The Bluff?

The film takes place in the late 1800s, an era of brutal, bloody piracy far removed from the romanticised versions of popular culture, with Priyanka Chopra Jonas portraying Ercell Bodden, the infamous Bloody Mary.

The Bluff chronicles the journey of Ercell Bodden, once feared across the seas as “Bloody Mary.” Priyanka Chopra brings the Jonas character to life as a mother and protector who has traded bloodshed for family life in the Cayman Islands. But when his former captain, Connor (Karl Urban), returns with stolen gold and a tireless crew out for revenge, Ercel is pulled back into a violent world he thought he had escaped from. The film mixes intense action with historical adventure, exploring the value of leaving a notorious past behind.

The Bluff aims to provide a grounded, gritty, and R-rated portrayal of 19th-century piracy, focusing on the harsh realities rather than romanticised exploits.

The project, produced by the Russo Brothers' AGBO production company and directed by Frank E. Flowers, reunites Priyanka Chopra Jonas with AGBO after their successful collaboration on the spy series Citadel.
