A year after turning a domestic political nightmare scenario into indie box office gold with “Civil War,” Alex Garland is re-teaming with a close collaborator for another military thriller.

Garland and Ray Mendoza, a former Navy Seal and Iraq War veteran who served as military supervisor for “Civil War,” co-write and direct “Warfare,” an upcoming A24 film that places Navy SEALs in Iraq in the spotlight. Per an official synopsis, the film “embeds audiences with a platoon of American Navy SEALs in the home of an Iraqi family, overwatching the movement of US forces through insurgent territory. A visceral, boots-on-the-ground story of modern warfare, told like never before: in real time and based on the memory of the people who lived it.”

“Warfare” stars: D’pharaoh Woon-a-Tai, Will Poulter, Cosmo Jarvis, Kit Connor, Finn Bennett, Taylor John Smith, Michael Gandolfini, Adain Bradley, Noah Centineo, Evan Holtzman, Henrique Zaga, Joseph Quinn, and Charles Melton.
