AGE OF HEROES

With Sean Bean, Danny Dyer, Aksel Hennie, Izabella Miko, James D'Arcy, Rosie Fellner

Written by Adrian Vitoria & Ed Scates

Directed by Adrian Vitoria

In the age old tradition of World War 2 missions, this one looks at the true events of how the 30 Commando was formed (which later led to the creation of the England's legendary SAS special forces unit). An unruly soldier serving time for striking an officer (after the man accused him and his battered men of being deserters), he lands his way onto the commando team. Their first mission is to parachute into Norway and locate and steal new radar equipment the Nazis have installed, which could help them turn the tide of the war.

With less stiff upper lip and more foul mouthes than the 1930s to 1950s movies taking on the WWII theme, the prerequisite nasty Nazi on their trail is also present.
