If there’s one filmmaker who makes the films that he wants to see, regardless of what the critics say, it’s got to be Michael Bay. A bit of a change from his standard overblown (emphasis on both over and blown) blockbuster fare, 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi is a slightly more sophisticated Bay film. We are fans of his Bayness and while it already looks like he’ll dazzle us with his visuals and cinematography, Steve Jablonsky is also on board to offer his musical energy to this pensive and action-packed thriller. Enjoy the first trailer below…
An American Ambassador is killed during an attack at a U.S. compound in Libya as a security team struggles to make sense out of the chaos.
Directed by Michael Bay, the film stars Pablo Schreiber, John Krasinski, Toby Stephens and James Badge Dale. Paramount Pictures has slated 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi for release early next year on January 15, 2016.
