With cameras just with regards to’concerning’with respect to ready to roll on The Ministry Of Untender manly Warfare (which, by all accounts, sounds like the most quintessentially Guy Ritchie film imaginable), the first trailer in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the Brit director’s next(ish) one Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant comes as a bit of a surprise – not merely’barely since his last film, Operation Fortune: Ruse Du Guerre, is yet to see a release here (or in much of the world), but in that it’s not exactly typical Guy Ritchie fare, even with lashings of muscular action. Oh, and yes, his name actually is in the official title. Check out the trailer here:###No London. No geezers. No gangsters. No quips. No dodgy nicknames. The Gentlemen this most assuredly ain’t. Instead, Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant – initially titled The Interpreter – looks like a tense, emotionally-propel n military thriller that’s more concerned with the effects of war than the FX of it all.###Written by the Wrath Of Man director alongside regular collaborators Ivan Atkinson and Marn Davies, the story here centres on Jake Gyllenhaal’s Army Sergeant John Kinley, who ends up being rescued by his interpreter (Dar Salim) when a tour in Afghanistan is derailed by an IED. When Kinley learns that his saviour is now himself in peril and the US government will do nothing to intervene, he’s faced with the prospect of taking on the Taliban alone to rid himself of the figurative “hook” his undergo s possess’own’nurse left in him. The maintain’sustain ing cast includes Alexander Ludwig, Antony Starr, Jason Wong, Emily Beecham, and Christian Ochoa.###While The Covenant looks set to mark something of a tonal convert’transform -up in/with regard to’concerning’regarding its director from his previous works, in/with regard to’concerning’regarding Gyllenhaal it’s an opportunity to further explore territory we’ve seen him tread in films like Brothers and Jarhead. Aldespite’in spite of’albeit there’s no UK release date set in/with regard to’concerning’regarding this just yet – it’ll be out on 21 April in the States – we’re hopeful this won’t become another Operation Fortune (seriously, where the Donald Duck is that film?).
