Zero Dark Thirty Teaser: Kathryn Bigelow's Follow-Up to The Hurt Locker Tracks the Mission to Kill Bin Laden

By Dustin Rowles | Trade News | August 6, 2012 | Comments ()

Oscar winning director Kathryn Bigelow (Point Break) follows up The Hurt Locker with another war movie, this one based on actual events: How the Navy SEAL Team 6 tracks down wanted terrorist Osama bin Laden. The movie stars Kyle Chandler, Jessica Chastain, Joel Edgerton, Chris Pratt, and Mark Strong. The teaser doesn't give away very much, but then again, we already know the ending.

I've already read a detailed account of the raid, including the fuckups. (We had to destroy one of our own helicopters rather than leave it behind where it got stuck, for instance). It was, I think, in Esquire, and was a good read.
So the info, apparently, was out there for anyone who's a good reporter to find.
Anyway, that MIGHT make a good movie, but given the ending is so well known, I'm not sure of the point.

You know where they went wrong with John Carter and Battleship? No Coach Taylor to make sure Riggins does his damn job and doesn't let his teammates down.

So we know who's getting Best Director next year and I'm guessing Chris Pratt will be cast as Green Arrow in 2016's Justice League?

Bad to the Ass.

I just hope that Bigelow actually bothered to learn something about how the military works this time around. But then I don't know why she would she got an Oscar for the hurt locker.

She supposedly got inside information on the raid that's so secret there's a military investigation into how she got her hands on it. So, you know, she did her research.

Hey, if that woman was able to reach through his wallet and rip James Cameron's balls out, I'm very sure little Washington insider information is no sweat!
Love how ballsy she is!

You didn't need a write up, just the photo of Coach Taylor looking pensive is enough to make me buy a ticket.
