Plot
Jackal (Matt Damon) is an intergalactic gunman and bounty hunter employed by criminal boss Nava (Rainn Wilson). He is used to hunt down vampires plaguing the universe of Luna. Jackal is called into action once again and then kills a bunch of vampires in a facility. However, in the process, Jackal accidentally injures some innocents after killing a vampire. Space police chief Zarlak (Tom Hiddleston) requests all his men find Jackal and incapacitate him. After a search for Jackal, the top space police agent Wardle (Taron Egerton) finds Jackal and gets him arrested. Meanwhile, across Luna, a man known as Doctor (Jeremy Irons) is locked up after being sued for botching a surgery, former assassin and street magician Imposter (Wyatt Russell) is arrested after pulling an illusion that backfires and destroys part of the town, and getting in a streetfight with a giant named Puppeteer (Pedro Pascal).

The four inmates meet in the prison cafeteria. Everyone takes a disliking for Doctor and Imposter and Puppeteer keep getting in arguments, with Puppeteer usually winning by knocking Imposter down. Puppeteer is chained up and brought to solitary confinement. Dissatisfied as he did nothing wrong, Jackal begins working with Imposter to escape. Doctor begins a truce with them and they make an escape plan. Imposter reveals his abilities to use illusions, but he doesn't know quite how to use them. The three use that to their advantage and are able to initiate a mass prison breakout. They free Puppeteer from his confinement and grab their confiscated weapons. Zarlak finds out about them and begins a search for the vigilantes.

Once out of the prison, the four realize they have nowhere to go. Imposter brings up a suggestion and they go to see his old flame, Margell (Daisy Ridley), who almost shuts them out. Imposter convinces Margell to let them stay. Margell relents and lets them in. Wardle does an inspection of the prison break and then reports back to Zarlak, who goes to Nava and asks him for help in finding the four. Nava accepts and helps Zarlak and his crew. Meanwhile, Wardle is revealed as a double agent employed by a mysterious man named Shade to help him take over Luna so an evil plan can be initiated. Wardle takes a transmission from Shade and then joins up with Zarlak and Nava to fight the four.

Jackal finds out Nava is coming to kill him and the others prepare for battle. Margell decides to join in to relive the old days when she and Imposter fought monsters side by side. The police force and bounty hunters show up to take them down, as Jackal pulls out his guns, Doctor breaks out some scalpels, Imposter works his magic, and Puppeteer breaks out a giant hammer. The battle is fought as Wardle flies to the side and takes a message from Shade to initiate the plan. Wardle nods and then begins killing the bounty hunters and the space police. A shocked Zarlak asks Wardle his intentions and then Wardle reveals he is a fake, and has been trying to take down Zarlak by working his way up the police force. Zarlak prepares to attack but Wardle evades him and kills Margell. Imposter runs to her side and then the four decide to clear their names and take Wardle down. Jackal, Doctor, Imposter, and Puppeteer all fight Wardle, giving him what he deserves, and finally, Jackal shoots Wardle in the chest to end the threat. Zarlak thanks the four for their help and offers to clear their names in order to work as a police sanctioned syndicate. The four accept and go into space as The Syndicate.

In a post credits scene, The Syndicate finds a nest of vampires near them and prepare to search for them, but in the process finding two boys, two tigers, a hamster, a CD player, a mad scientist, and his robot.
