Film - 1917

"Time is the enemy." Oscar winning director Sam Mendes brings his singular vision to his World War I epic, 1917. Watch the trailer...

At the height of the First World War, two young British soldiers, Schofield (Captain Fantastic’s George MacKay) and Blake (Game of Thrones’ Dean-Charles Chapman) are given a seemingly impossible mission. In a race against time, they must cross enemy territory and deliver a message that will stop a deadly attack on hundreds of soldiers—Blake’s own brother among them. 

Also starring Mark Strong, Andrew Scott, Richard Madden and Claire Duburcq and featuring Colin Firth and Benedict Cumberbatch, 1917 is directed by Sam Mendes, who also wrote the screenplay with Krysty Wilson-Cairns (Showtime’s Penny Dreadful). The film comes to UK cinemas on 10th January 2020.
