The movie, which follows a U.S. Army captain (Elsa Pataky) who must prevent a nuclear missile attack forged by domestic terrorists in cahoots with Russians, has been No.

1 on the streamer’s top 10 list with about 50 million hours viewed.“It’s blown me away,” Reilly told me on Friday morning when I caught up with over Zoom. “I was hoping to sneak into the top 10 on Netflix, but coming in at number one everywhere?” “I don’t think anybody was expecting it to take the world by storm,” he continued before laughing. “I’m just as confused as everybody else.”Produced by Pataky’s husband Chris Hemsworth, Reilly co-wrote the screenplay with Stuart Beattie (“Obi-Wan Kenobi”).“Interceptor” takes place in one location — a floating military base in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, equipped with a defense system that has the ability to intercept nuclear missiles.
