6 Underground

Four years after witnessing the horrors of a brutal regime in the Middle Eastern nation of Turgistan, an unnamed American billionaire and philanthropist who made his fortunes from inventing neodymium magnets fakes his own death to form an anonymous vigilante squad to take down criminals and terrorists that governments will not touch. Now known as “One”, he recruits five other people to abandon their pasts and join his cause as “Ghosts”: Two, a spy; Three, a hitman; Four, a parkour runner and thief; Five, a doctor; and Six, a driver.

On their first mission in Florence, Italy, the team kills the lawyer of Turgistan’s four generals before they are chased across the city by the Mafia and the police. Six is killed just as they manage to get away. Days later, One recruits former Delta Force sniper Blaine and renames him “Seven”. One plans a mission to stage a coup d’état to topple the government of Turgistan dictator Rovach Alimov and install his imprisoned brother Murat as the country’s new leader during the Day of the Dead.

The team assassinates Rovach’s generals in Las Vegas and successfully extract Murat from Hong Kong, but following an argument between One and Seven, the Ghosts break their code of anonymity and reveal each other’s names. In Turgistan, One sets his plan in motion by hacking the state-run television station during Rovach’s address to give Murat a voice to the people. Murat’s impromptu speech inspires the citizens to revolt while strategic explosions in the city force Rovach to evacuate to his private yacht and Murat occupies the palace. The Ghosts storm through the yacht and One activates a magnetic pulse to incapacitate the guards. When the yacht is immobilized in the middle of the ocean, Rovach flees by helicopter, only to discover it to be commandeered by Murat and the Ghosts, who drop him near the border to feed him to the refugees.

In the aftermath of the revolution, Murat becomes Turgistan’s new president and the Ghosts part ways until they are once again needed. One travels to New York City and sees his illegitimate son, who he will pass his fortunes to should he die in the next mission.
