Brad Pitt has teamed up with Netflix for War Machine, and the first teaser trailer was released today…
The movie, which was shot in Abu Dhabi in 2015, is “a pitch-black war story for our times [which] recreates a U.S. General’s roller-coaster rise and fall as part reality, part savage parody – raising the spectre of just where the line between them lies today,” according to Netflix. Who add, “At the story’s core is Brad Pitt’s sly take on one of the most polarizing war figures of a generation: successful, charismatic four-star General Stanley McChrystal, who leapt in like a rock star to command NATO forces in Afghanistan, only to be taken down by a journalist’s no-holds-barred exposé.”
The UAE filming of War Machine included 500 extras representing over 20 nationalities, and was filmed in November and December 2015.
The movie will be available to be streamed on Netflix from May 26Â
