During World War II, the British Army assigns a group of competent soldiers to carry out a mission against the Nazi forces behind enemy lines... A true story about a secret British WWII organization — the Special Operations Executive. Founded by Winston Churchill, their irregular warfare against the Germans helped to change the course of the war, and gave birth to modern black operations.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The real Operation Postmaster inspired this film—Churchill personally signed off on stealing a ship from neutral Spain.
This film essentially argues modern special forces and James Bond were born from the same chaotic British lads' holiday.

Henry isn't just a nerd, superman, badass, gentleman but a damn good actor. Can't wait for this.

It looks fucking insane. Cavill and Ritchie together again. It's gonna be one hell of a movie!
