We have a new Guy Ritchie movie coming out in April, and it still looks like the most fun Henry Cavill has had on screen in years. The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare features a rather large ensemble cast with some pretty heavy hitters. It is one of those "inspired by true events" where the actual events are so out of this world that you know it has to have some basis in reality because only reality could be that weird. Ritchie usually makes entertaining movies, even if they don't always entirely come together, so we'll have to see if that ends up being the case here. The last time Ritchie released a film with a massive and impressive ensemble cast, we got a television spinoff out of it. The official poster was released today.
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare: Summary, Cast List, Release Date
Based upon recently declassified files of the British War Department and inspired by true events, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is an action-comedy that tells the story of the first-ever special forces organization formed during WWII by UK Prime Minister Winston Churchill and a small group of military officials including author Ian Fleming. The top-secret combat unit, composed of a motley crew of rogues and mavericks, goes on a daring mission against the Nazis using entirely unconventional and utterly "ungentlemanly" fighting techniques. Ultimately, their audacious approach changed the course of the war and laid the foundation for the British SAS and modern Black Ops warfare.
