After the terrorist attacks of 9/11, Jack Ryan (Pine), studying at the London School of Economics, becomes a US Marine second lieutenant fighting in Afghanistan, where he is critically injured when his helicopter is shot down. During a lengthy rehab, he attracts the attention of Cathy Muller (Knightley), a medical student, and Thomas Harper (Costner), an official with the CIA who recruits him into the CIA.
Ten years later, Ryan is working on Wall Street with a cover job as a compliance officer at a stock brokerage, and as a covert CIA analyst, looking for suspect financial transactions that would indicate terrorist activity. When the Russian Federation loses a key vote before the United Nations, Ryan notices that the markets do not respond in the expected way. He discovers that trillions of dollars held by Russian organizations have disappeared. A large number of these funds are controlled by Viktor Cherevin (Branagh), a Russian tycoon.
