Arnold is back at it again, this time with the upcoming SABOTAGE from director David Ayer (END OF WATCH). USA Today dropped some new pics from the action thriller, which feature Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sam Worthington, Joe Manganiello, Mireille Enos armed to the teeth and looking relatively badass. The film centers around an elite DEA task force that find themselves targeted after raiding a drug cartel safe house, which seems like fine territory for a David Ayer flick. Also starring in the film are Josh Holloway, Olivia Williams, Harold Perrineau, and Max Martini (PACIFIC RIM).
Here's the pics:
I'm very much looking forward to this. I'm an unabashed fan of Ayer, who has delivered some really intense action thrillers with deeply flawed protagonists. After writing TRAINING DAY, he dabbled in the mainstream a bit (S.W.A.T., DARK BLUE) and then delivered the modest and underrated HARSH TIMES, STREET KINGS, and his latest, END OF WATCH, all of which have proven he's a filmmaker to watch. Apparently, Hollywood has taken notice, as he's now saddled up with power players like Schwarzenegger and is currently shooting the WWII tank thriller, FURY, with Brad Pitt. Arnold seems pleased with Ayer's promise as well, saying, "This is a very intense movie. I don't know if everyone has the stomach to handle this. It's brutal. We're taking the action thriller to new heights."
SABOTAGE opens on April 11, 2014.
