Tom Hardy Plays Navy SEAL In ‘War Party’

Tom Hardy is set to play a Navy SEAL.  He’ll star in War Party, an adventure pitch from director Andrew Dominik (Killing Them Softly, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford) which Netflix has supposedly paid seven figures for the medium sized project. The deal is for Dominik to direct and co-write with Harrison Query.

The film is based on true life events of a group of real Navy SEALS.

Netflix outbid Amazon and LionsGate for the property.  In particular, Netflix and Amazon seem to be really gaining traction in putting good, expensive shows and movies out there.  You have to wonder if the big screen is long for this world…
