Major Grom: The Game (Russian: Майор Гром: Игра) is an upcoming Russian action film directed by Oleg Trofim. It will be the third full-length feature film based on BUBBLE Comics' Major Grom series, and is a direct sequel to 2021's Major Grom: Plague Doctor.More than a year has passed since Major Grom captured the Plague Doctor. St. Petersburg recovered from the shock, and Sergey Razumovsky ended up in a psychiatric hospital. Igor Grom has become the city's biggest celebrity, catching criminals by day with his partner Dima Dubin and spending his evenings with journalist Yulia Pchelkina (whom he has recently begun dating). Life has never been better.However, such an idyll cannot last. Lieutenant General Maria Arkhipova (Olga Sutulova) arrives from Moscow with a plan to reform the Saint Petersburg police and replace the staff with highly advanced technological devices, courtesy of international weapons magnate August van der Holt (Matvey Lykov). When a test run of Holt's crimefighting drones ends in disaster (thanks in part to Grom's involvement) and costs Holt his partnership, the enraged businessman hires a mysterious terrorist known as "The Ghost" to cause chaos throughout the city — and prove, once and for all, that Igor Grom is no true hero.Much of the cast of Plague Doctor, including Tikhon Zhiznevsky (Igor Grom), Alexei Maklakov (police chief Fyodor Prokopenko), Alexander Seteykin (Dmitry Dubin), Lyubov Aksyonova (Yulia Pchelkina), Sergei Goroshko (Sergey Razumovsky), and Dmitry Chebotaryov (Oleg Volkov) will be returning to their roles in the film.Filming began in March 2023, with a planned May 2024 release date. The teaser trailer was released on October 9, 2023.

Stuff Blowing Up: The Ghost's terrorist acts are carried out with explosives. Among other things, he detonates bombs around the base of the obelisk in Vosstaniya Square, leaving behind a smoldering crater.

Mad Bomber: Among other things, The Ghost uses explosives to carry out terrorist acts on the city. Promotional images from the film show various locations around the city (including police headquarters and Vmeste's corporate headquarters) as smoldering wrecks, while the trailer shows the column in Palace Square being destroyed by explosives.

Celebrity Superhero: Thanks to the publicity surrounding the Plague Doctor case, Igor Grom has become a celebrity in Saint Petersburg: the city erects a statue in his honor, people cosplay as him, and he has merchandise (including plushies and an energy drink), a comic book (Grom: The True Story), and a film based on his adventures. Grom doesn't seem to care much about any of this. (The Ghost, however, does.)

Sanity Slippage: Razumovsky undergoes this while staying at the mental hospital, undergoing a full psychological split (with one side of his psyche seemingly manifesting as Dr. Rubenstein, while the other continues to appear as Oleg).

Recursive Canon: Igor Grom has not only has a comic book series, but a feature film (which bears a '"striking'' resemblance to the 2017 Short Film "Major Grom") based on his life.

Prison Riot: In one scene, Igor and Dima visit a prison colony and end up in the middle of a riot (orchestrated by The Ghost, who hacked the prison's security system and caused the doors to unlock). Igor ends up at the mercy of a brutal gang leader, whom he previously apprehended.

Sequel Non-Entity: Subverted: initially, Sergei Goroshko was stated to be absent from the cast; this was surprising to fans, given that The Game is a Razumovsky-heavy arc in the comics and the Mid Credit Scene of Rough Childhood already hinted at his return. However, Goroshko has since been confirmed to be appearing in the film.

Revenge: August van der Holt hires a terrorist to play mind games with Igor Grom and carry out criminals acts that he is unable to prevent, in order to disgrace and defame the major; he does this because Igor caused his drones to go haywire during their test run, and ruined his prospective business deal with the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: One scene from the trailer depicts the two sides of Razumovsky's personality (envisioned as Dr. Rubenstein and Oleg Volkov) both shouting into one of his ears, in a clear reference to a similar scene from the 2004 film adaptation of Night Watch (which, appropriately, also features bird imagery, chess imagery, and a battle between a light side and a dark side).

Man Versus Machine: The film's underlying theme, as St. Petersburg's human police force (and Grom in particular) try to prove their mettle against highly-advanced technology — be it Maria Arkhipova's crime fighting drones (which are primed to replace them), August van der Holt's enhanced cybernetic physique, or the Ghost's complex timed explosives.

Crossover: Holt International, the main antagonist from the BUBBLE comic book series Red Fury (who are confirmed in film canon to have manufactured the Plague Doctor's suit and flamethrower gloves) features prominently in the film, with August van der Holt, the company's shady CEO, in a starring role. Another character from Red Fury, Otto Schreiber, also appears as August's bodyguard.
