Nathan Harper (Taylor Lautner) leads a seemingly ordinary life, but is constantly haunted by a strange sense of alienation, as if his life were not his own. One day, he makes a disturbing discovery: while surfing a missing persons website, he comes across a photo of himself as a child. This revelation overturns everything he thought he knew, and he realizes that his parents aren't really his, and that his whole life is a lie.
While trying to piece together the puzzle of his past, Nathan becomes the target of professional killers. Forced to flee, he can only count on the help of Karen (Lily Collins), his neighbor and friend. Together, they must escape mysterious and dangerous enemies, including government agents led by Burton (Alfred Molina), and find answers before it's too late.
In this race against time, Nathan realizes that to survive, he must confront truths about his identity that he never imagined, and learn to use his skills to fight those who want to neutralize him at all costs.
Secret Identity will appeal to fans of fast-paced, thrilling action thrillers, with a plot combining suspense, conspiracy and high-speed chases.
