Deadline:

 

There’s more star power on board for Guy Ritchie and Jerry Bruckheimer’s new war movie, The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare, we can reveal, ahead of its February 13 start date in Turkey.

 

Joining Henry Cavill and Eiza González are Alan Ritchson (Fast X, Reacher), Henry Golding (Crazy Rich Asians, The Gentlemen), Henry Zaga (Beyond The Universe), Alex Pettyfer (Magic Mike, The Butler), Cary Elwes (Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre), Hero Fiennes Tiffin (After franchise), Babs Olusanmokun (Dune, “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds”) and Til Schweiger (Inglourious Basterds, Atomic Blonde).

The true story covers UK Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s and Ian Fleming’s secret WWII combat organization. The clandestine squad’s unconventional and ‘ungentlemanly’ fighting techniques against the Nazis helped change the course of the war and gave birth to the modern Black Ops unit.

 

The script by Paul Tamasy and Eric Johnson, Arash Amel and Ritchie is based on war correspondent and military historian Damien Lewis’ best-selling book of the same name. Tamasy and Johnson initiated the project and sold it as a pitch to Bruckheimer and Paramount in 2015.

This gonna be insanely good. A potential Inglorious Basterds / Fury type film.

It would be great if Ritchie could talk Gary Oldham into doing a brief appreance as Churchill.

I hope it's a bit more realistic then those two films were.

Looks more fun than Ritchie's other recent stuff 

[TheDarkKnightOfSteel]

Damn I love Ritchie movies and the trailer still exceeds my expectations. Cavill seems to have a lot of fun here. Cast is good. Can’t wait.

 

That being said, editing any trailer to a Queen song is just cheating.

This looks pretty dam fun. Just hope it is better than Operation Fortune. And is Cary Elwes playing the dad or grandpa of his character from that movie. LOL

Alan Ritchson big man

This trailer is a lot of fun, I'm sure I'll have loads of fun watching it, but I'm not sure this will do all that well in the BO.

I'm not surprised at how fun this looks. Ritchie has gotten the best film performance from Cavill in The Man from UNCLE. It appears the two operate on the same frequency. As much as I know I'm going to enjoy this, it'll probably end up a mild box office disappointment similar to TMfU.

 

Bonus: Alan Ritchson starring in a WW2 film gets us a step closer to Wolfenstein.

I could see this doing Man From UNCLE numbers which, in the current box office climate, is a pretty nice win.
