THE UNION is a spy action-comedy-thriller starring Mark Wahlberg as Mike McKenna, a New Jersey construction worker, and Halle Berry as Roxanne Hall, his high school sweetheart turned secret agent. The story kicks off when Roxanne, a member of a covert agency called The Union, recruits Mike for a high-stakes mission after a botched operation in Trieste leaves several agents dead and critical intelligence stolen. The Union, a blue-collar spy outfit valuing street smarts, needs an untraceable “nobody” like Mike to recover a briefcase containing the identities of Western allied agents, now up for auction on the black market.
Drugged and whisked to London, Mike undergoes rushed training in combat and espionage, struggling to keep up with Roxanne’s elite skills. Their mission takes them across Europe, facing Iranian terrorists, North Korean operatives, and Russian spies. The plot thickens with betrayals, including a twist involving Roxanne’s presumed-dead husband, Nick Faraday (Mike Colter), who’s revealed as a traitor selling the intel. Mike and Roxanne’s rekindled chemistry, fueled by their real-life friendship, adds humor and romance
