The film stars Chris Hemsworth as Owen Chase, the first mate of the Essex, and Benjamin Walker as George Pollard, the captain's son. The story begins with a young George Pollard (Brendan Hunt) who is introduced as the new captain of the Essex. However, his inexperience and Owen's resentment towards him create tension among the crew. The ship sets sail from Nantucket in 1820, and after a successful whaling season, the crew encounters a massive sperm whale that attacks and sinks the ship.

Unlike the literary masterpiece it inspired, In the Heart of the Sea does not focus on the metaphysical obsession of a captain chasing a whale. Instead, it focuses on the grim reality of the crew. The film frames the story through a postscript narrative, featuring Melville (played by Ben Whishaw) interviewing the elderly survivor Thomas Nickerson (Brendan Gleeson). This framing device gives the film a sense of historical weight and emotional gravitas, transforming the action from a simple monster movie into a haunting memoir of trauma and guilt.
