    • Synopsis
    • Branded tells the origin story of organized crime gangs in America’s prison system.

      Pettyfer plays Taylor, a once promising American football player, serving life for murdering a drug dealer. Grillo plays Carter, feared leader of the dominant white gang in San Quentin, who takes Taylor under his wing and grooms him as a future leader. The authorities’ attempt to break down the gang by dispersing members to other prisons only spreads its influence through the entire system, and eventually to the streets.

      Taylor finds himself at the centre of a growing empire, earning serious money and the ability to marry and support the love of his life, Lilly (Bakalova). When Lilly gets pregnant after a conjugal visit, and the gang embarks on a course of escalating violence, Taylor is forced to question his choices, and to make the hardest one. Has he got the mettle and courage to bring down the empire he helped build?
