Gerard Butler faces explosive danger in the trailer for 'Kandahar.'
Gerard Butler is back in action in the official trailer for Ric Roman Waugh’s latest feature, Kandahar. Introducing audiences to Butler’s CIA agent, Tom Harris, the new trailer spells out the plot of a government mission gone horribly wrong in Waugh’s upcoming adrenaline-filled production.
The opening moments reveal Agent Harris taking on the daunting task of wiping out a nuclear reactor in Iran. After being exposed in the media as the man behind the attacks, Harris makes the quick decision to make a run for it with his translator . The duo’s escape lies in the Afghanistan city of Kandahar — a whopping 400 miles from where they are when the news breaks.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Starring alongside Butler and Negahban in Kandahar are Ali Fazal , Travis Fimmel , Olivia-Mai Barrett , Nina Toussaint-White , and Elnaaz Norouzi. Along with helming the production Waugh also penned the script with Mitchell LaFortune who is also the mind behind Alex Parkinson’s upcoming film Last Breath which will star Woody Harrelson, Simu Liu, and Djimon Hounsou.
Along with leading the cast, Butler also serves the film as a producer with Basil Iwanyk, Erica Lee, Brendon Boyea, Christian Mercuri, Alan Siegel, Scott LaStaiti, and Ali Jaafar. Kandahar comes to theaters just in time for Memorial Day on May 26. You can check out the official trailer below.
