In the 2022 action novel by Jack Carr - In the Blood - The Grenadier was mentioned. Jack Carr's first book in the series was turned into a hit Amazon mini series The Terminal List. Another season is in the works, so there is a chance we could see one in there. Below is the excerpt from In the Blood in which the Grenadier was discussed...


"It's an INEOS Grenadier."
"A what?"
"Some bloke in England wanted to build a truck that kept the look of the old Defenders but..."
"But actually worked?"
"But that were built to modern standards," Raife corrected. "This is the first one in the States. My dad somehow got his hands on it."

Im waiting for my Grenadier arrival later this year and intend using it in a Doco here in Northern and Central Australia dealing with the lost Dutch Settlement south of Alice Springs. Looking at exposure in UK, Australia, and The Netherlands eventually via ABC and BBC. The History Channel is also an obvious starter outlet.

It will be a goodie and the baddies will be driving clapped out Toyota Landcruisers 😆

So basically the opposite of No Time to Die where Bond drives an old Landcruiser & the baddies are in Defenders & Rangeys? :ROFLMAO:

My guess will be in more adventure documentary series similar to the one Chris Hemsworth recently did.
Feature film wise? I'd love to see it in the likes of a Tomb Raider reboot or a sequel to Uncharted (the first film they drove a Hyundai Tucson lol)

Looking forward to it Les. The whole story sounds intriguing and it’ll be great to see a Gren on screen.

It looks like BMW have pretty much locked the product placement for the MI franchise. So maybe Ineos have sneaked in as the "Bad" guys...... As this one is Black, this generally signifies "bad guy" in Movie language. Could be taking over from the G-wagen as the classic "bad guy" vehicle?

A high speed chase would have that driver sweating with all the turning like a drummer to who just went hard on a solo.

Is it crazy that all I can think of is how to mount assault rifles to those utility straps, and maybe some rocket launchers? Guessing that would be illegal and you would never hit anything....but would make for a great movie scene. Next James Bond Movie? Just IMAGINE what Q could do with a Grenadier!

I don’t know if this is the first, and it’s really only a bit part, but here is my mates car playing our lead actors personal transportation (he’s a goodie) No, I can’t tell you what film it is, (NDA signed) and which actor is leaning on the bonnet, but I welcome your guess’s😜

Looks a hell of a lot like Pierce Brosnan
