The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare–More trailers for Guy Ritchie’s latest

Next week will see the theatrical premiere of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, the next movie directed by Guy Ritchie, the director who dazzles more often than not with movies like The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and Sherlock Holmes, although he hasn’t had a big success since U.N.C.L.E., which starred Henry Cavill, who also leads this next action movie.  “Based on a true story,” it looks quite quirky, a little like Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds--but with some dry Monty Python British humor vibes.

The story is based on Churchill’s Secret Warriors: The Explosive True Story of the Special Forces Desperadoes of WWII, by Damien Lewis–not to be confused with the actor of the same name.  The writer is known for many over-hyped “explosive true story” books about combat.  So consider the source, and consider this as much fiction as truth.

The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare has released two new clips this week leading up to next week’s arrival.  Check them out below.

And in case you missed the first trailer previewed here at borg back in February…

Initially to co-star Jake Gyllenhaal, the movie features The Princess Bride’s Cary Elwes looking much like his character in Psych, plus Snake Eyes’ Henry Golding, Bloodshot, Baby Driver, and Ambulance star Eiza González, Strange New Worlds’ Babs Olusanmokun, The New Mutants’ Henry Zaga, and Fast X’s Alan Ritchson.

Look for The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare in theaters April 19, 2024.
