Suspect Zero follows the disgraced
FBI Agent Thomas Mackelway (
Aaron Eckhart), who was transferred to a desolate area in Albuquerque, New Mexico as punishment for botching a procedure which ultimately led to the release of one of the most notorious criminals on the FBI's list.
Mackelway is given an opportunity to redeem himself, however, when he is called in to investigate the strange murder of a traveling salesman. Mysteriously, the mark of a circle with a line through it is the only clue that the killer left behind. Before long, the prime suspect is identified as former agent
Benjamin O'Ryan (
Ben Kingsley), who is seemingly obsessed with hunting down serial killers and murdering them rather than turning them in to the proper authorities. Though
Mackelway believes he knows the area where
O'Ryan (
Kingsley) is living, he has no idea what he looks like -- a problem that the rogue agent exploits with great success. Despite his brilliance,
Mackelway finds himself caught in a psychological labyrinth of sorts, and is faced with an even greater quandary after learning that
O'Ryan is looking for none other than Suspect Zero, a murderer of hundreds and the FBI's most wanted man. The supporting cast includes
Carrie-Anne Moss and
Harry J. Lennix.
