Earlier this year, Alex Garland gave us Civil War, a dystopian imagining of the Second American Civil War in modern times.
And now he’s back at A24 with Warfare, a movie set in 2006 amidst the Iraq War.
The new action thriller is co-written and directed by the 28 Years Days/28 Years Later screenwriter.
This time, teaming up with Iraq War veteran Ray Mendoza, who D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai plays.
Joseph Quinn, Cosmo Jarvis, Will Coulter, Noah Centineo, Michael Gandolfini, and more are joining the cast in the real-time conflict film.
The film’s official synopsis reads: “Warfare embeds audiences with a platoon of American Navy SEALs in the home of an Iraqi family, overwatching the movement of US forces through insurgent territory. A visceral, boots-on-the-ground story of modern warfare, told like never before: in real time and based on the memory of the people who lived it.”
Warfare will be released in cinemas in 2025.
