How to watch the Sniper movies in chronological order

Sniper (1993)

The 1993 original, directed by Luis Llosa, is the adventure film that unexpectedly spawned an entire franchise.

Sniper stars Berenger and Zane as two sharpshooters on a mission to assassinate a politician/rebel leader in the jungles of Panama.

The film debuted at No. 2 at the U.S. box office, and has since become a cult action classic.

Sniper 2 (2002)

Despite losing his trigger finger in the first Sniper movie, Thomas Beckett is back to show off his target skills. This time, his assignment takes him to Serbia, as he is tasked with assassinating the merciless General Mile Valstoria (Peter Linka).

Sniper 3 (2004)

The CIA enlists Thomas Beckett for a secret mission to take out “King Cobra,” a drug trafficker who turns out to be an old friend of his — one he thought was dead.

The assignment has a different purpose than Beckett was led to believe, resulting in the gunman finding himself in the crosshairs.

Sniper: Reloaded (2011)

The fourth film in the Sniper series introduced Thomas Beckett’s son, Brandon Beckett (played by Chad Michael Collins). Berenger doesn’t return, but Zane does, reprising his role from the first movie.

Brandon is a skilled shooter like his father, and in Sniper: Reloaded, he seeks revenge on a mysterious assassin who has murdered his marine squad.

Sniper: Legacy (2014)

After multiple military leaders are shot, Brandon is told that his father, Thomas, is dead. It is revealed that his dad is actually alive, and Brandon discovers he is being used as bait, luring him into a dangerous trap.

Berenger makes his triumphant return to the Sniper series, and Dennis Haysbert is introduced as Colonel Stone, a character who appears in multiple Sniper sequels.

Sniper: Ghost Shooter (2016)

Brandon Beckett and Richard Miller team up again, this time to protect a gas pipeline from terrorists in the Republic of Georgia.

When a shooter somehow knows their team’s exact location, they believe there’s a traitor in their midst.

Sniper: Ultimate Kill (2017)

Brandon and his Marine snipers have to kill a Colombian kingpin who has taken over the routes to smuggle drugs into the U.S.

Berenger and Zane are both back, and this is the only Sniper movie to feature all three of the series’ original lead gunmen: Thomas Beckett, Brandon Beckett and Richard Miller.

Sniper: Assassin’s End (2020)

When Brandon Beckett is framed for the assassination of a foreign dignitary, he reunites with his father, Thomas, as they try to outrun both the CIA and a deadly assassin, Lady Death (Sayaka Akimoto).

During their action-filled escapade, the father-son duo discover a more far-reaching conspiracy than they could have ever imagined.

Sniper: Rogue Mission (2022)

Brandon teams up with Homeland Security Agent Zero (Ryan Robbins) and his former adversary, Lady Death (Akimoto), to face off against a rogue federal agent who is running a sex trafficking ring.

“We are kind of a team of rogues, more or less,” actor Collins told Comic Book Resources in 2022, when discussing Rogue Mission. “We are not afraid to clandestinely do what’s right and hide the paper trail in terms of not getting caught up in all the red tape and actually getting something done.”

Sniper: G.R.I.T. – Global Response & Intelligence Team (2023)

The Sniper franchise celebrated its 30th anniversary with a new film featuring the formation of the global response and intelligence team (G.R.I.T.).

Things get personal for the squad of special agents when one of their own, Lady Death, is captured by a deadly terrorist cult. G.R.I.T. — led by Colonel Stone (Haysbert) — stays true to their name and travels the world as they attempt to rescue their teammate.

Sniper: The Last Stand (2025)

Agents Brandon Beckett and Zero lead a group of operatives as they race to stop an arms dealer from releasing a deadly weapon of mass destruction on the world.

Like his father in the original movie, Brandon mentors Zondi (Sizo Mahlangu), a sharpshooter with little field experience, bringing the Sniper story full circle.

“Being part of a legendary action franchise like Sniper is something special—this series has made generations of kids dream about being action heroes,” Mahlangu wrote on Instagram in February 2025.
