Fuze is a 2026 British action thriller directed by David Mackenzie, starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Theo James. When a dormant World War II bomb surfaces beneath a packed London construction site, a desperate race against time forces military experts, police, and ordinary civilians into an impossible standoff at the heart of the city.
What is Fuze about?
Deep beneath a crowded construction zone in central London, workers unearth something no one anticipated: a live, unexploded bomb dating back to the Second World War. As authorities scramble to assess the danger, the surrounding streets must be cleared — a logistical nightmare in one of the world's most densely populated urban cores. The military's bomb disposal team moves in while police manage a sprawling mass evacuation, and every passing minute raises the stakes. Tensions fracture along lines of command, personal history, and divided loyalties as the team confronts a device that has waited decades to detonate. The clock does not wait for anyone to agree on a plan.
Cast & crew
David Mackenzie, whose previous work has spanned intense character-driven dramas and high-stakes thrillers, brings his stripped-down, pressure-cooker style to this London-set production. Aaron Taylor-Johnson leads as the bomb disposal specialist at the center of the crisis, with Theo James, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Sam Worthington, and Elham Ehsas rounding out an ensemble that includes both established British talent and international screen presences.
Context & significance
For Persian-speaking audiences in the diaspora, Fuze arrives as a lean, propulsive thriller with one of its supporting roles filled by Elham Ehsas, a British-Afghan actor familiar to international viewers and recognizable to audiences from the wider Southwest Asian screen community. The film's London setting — a city with a significant Iranian and Middle Eastern diaspora population — gives it an added layer of geographical resonance. Action thrillers built around real historical artifacts and urban catastrophe have long found enthusiastic audiences among Persian-speaking viewers abroad. Fuze is available on K-Time with a full Persian dub, making it immediately accessible to all generations of diaspora families, including those who prefer watching in Persian.
