By A24 has released the first trailer for Ray Mendoza and Alex Garland’s “Warfare” which is slated to open in cinemas next year.
Mendoza is an Iraq War veteran who served as the military supervisor on Garland’s controversial 2024 title “Civil War” which A24 released a few months back.
Charles Melton, Joseph Quinn, Kit Connor, Cosmo Jarvis, Will Poulter, Finn Bennett, Noah Centineo, Taylor John Smith, Adain Bradley, Michael Gandolfini, Henrique Zaga, D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai and Evan Holtzman star in the film.
Specifics of the plot are under wraps beyond it involving a platoon of American Navy SEALs in the home of an Iraqi family, overwatching the movement of US forces through insurgent territory.
It’s dubbed a “visceral, boots-on-the-ground story” told in real time and based on the memory of the people who lived it. A24 has also released a tagline saying: “Everything is based on memory”.
The project is seemingly trying hard for authenticity. A more specific release date is expected to be announced early in the new year.
