Leadership is Booming in "Heads of State" on Prime Video.
Heads of State arrived today July 2, 2025 on Prime Video with a boom! In the action-comedy Heads of State, the UK Prime Minister Sam Clarke (Idris Elba) and U.S. President Will Derringer (John Cena) have a not-so-friendly and very public rivalry that jeopardizes their countries’ “special relationship.” But when they become the targets of a powerful and ruthless foreign adversary—who proves more than a match for the two leaders’ security forces—they are begrudgingly forced to rely on the only two people they can trust: each other.
The film stars: Idris Elba, John Cena, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Carla Gugino, Jack Quaid, Stephen Root, Sarah Niles, Richard Coyle and Paddy Considine.



This hilariously funny and high action film is a perfect weekend watch. The chemistry on screen between the leads is funny, charming, and easy to follow.
Add in the chaos and banter of the frenemy political leaders who are now forced to team up, along with the brilliant MI6 agent Noel Bisset, played Priyanka Chopra Jonas and you have a perfect action packed dramedy.
Join in as they go on the run and find a way to work together long enough to thwart a global conspiracy that threatens the entire free world.
