Deepwater Horizon (2016) First Look

LionsGate has revealed a first look featurette for Peter Berg’s thriller/drama ‘Deepwater Horizon’, which was filmed in New Orleans for a release in cinemas on the 29th September 2016.

Mark Wahlberg, John Malkovich, Dylan O’Brien, Gina Rodriguez and Kate Hudson star in the film which is based on the true events that occurred on an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 and chronicles the courage of those who worked on the rig during the disaster. Matthew Sand and Matthew Michael Carnahan penned the script.

Oh, and Kurt Russell also appears in the movie.  I’m more excited by the fact that it’s directed by Peter Berg however, his ‘Lone Survivor’ action scenes, and how steadily they were filmed and how clearly they were edited, was like a retro drug to me.  Very good!
