In 2006, Tori and Kyle Breyer (Elizabeth Banks and David Denman) are a farm couple living in Brightburn, Kansas. They are trying to have a child, but have failed to conceive. One night, a meteor falls from the sky near their farm with a baby inside. They decide to adopt him, naming him Brandon (Jackson A. Dunn). The film takes a turn towards horror as Brandon begins to develop powers similar to classic comic book hero, Superman. With these newly discovered powers, Brandon begins to torture the residents of Brightburn.
