In order to stop the German submarine threat in the Atlantic and clear the way for American war aid, March-Philips and his men are to destroy a supply ship on the west coast of Africa.
Director Guy Ritchie (The Gentlemen) builds his story on a true story In the so-called Operation Postmaster, a British commando actually took action against Axis supply ships in 1942. The course of the mission reads almost like a 007 novel.
As the trailer already shows, Ritchie has assembled an illustrious cast for his war film action. In addition to Cavill, Alan Ritchson (Reacher) and Til Schweiger can be seen in front of the camera.
