“478”  offers a dark story line with Schwarzenegger playing a man whose wife and child die in an airplane accident. Schwarzenegger plays the grieving husband and father who seeks revenge after losing his family in the tragic, mid-air collision. Schwarzenegger’s character blames the tragedy on an air traffic controller who may have dropped the ball and allowed the crash to happen. After being blamed for the accident and vilified for his mistake, the air-traffic controller ends up having to be placed into protective custody. Schwarzenegger’s character is out for blood. He cannot let the incident go and sets out on a path of revenge that may destroy them both.

Schwarzenegger’s last film, “Terminator Genysis,” was a hit internationally with a $450 million worldwide gross.
