A24 just dropped the first trailer for “Warfare,” a flick that promises more explosions than a toddler’s birthday party after too much cake! This action-packed epic is penned and helmed by Ray Mendoza, an Iraq War vet who probably has some wild stories that would make your family reunion sound like a game of Monopoly. Teaming up with Civil War director Alex Garland (you know, the guy who probably thinks “civil war” is just a really intense game of charades), they’ve put together something that might just blow your socks off – if you’re into that sort of thing!
Now, let’s talk about the star-studded cast. We’ve got D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Will Poulter (who’s probably been prepping for this role by flexing in front of the mirror), Cosmo Jarvis (not to be confused with a jar of Cosmo), Kit Connor, Finn Bennett, Taylor John Smith, Michael Gandolfini (yes, related to that Gandolfini), Adain Bradley, Noah Centineo (aka the internet’s boyfriend), Evan Holtzman, Henrique Zaga, Joseph Quinn, and Charles Melton. Basically, it’s a reunion of all the actors your mom has seen in different streaming shows!
Now, here’s the scoop on the movie: “Warfare” is about a group of American Navy SEALs who cozy up with an Iraqi family while keeping an eye on U.S. troops stumbling through insurgent territory. Think of it as a reality show, but instead of awkward family dinners, it’s more like an intense episode of “Survivor” with actual guns and way less sunscreen. This gritty, boots-on-the-ground saga takes a fresh look at modern warfare, delivered in real-time and told through the eyes of people who were probably wishing they had just stayed in bed that day.
Mark your calendars! “Warfare” hits theaters in 2025, and we can’t wait to see if it’s a bang or a bust!
