One of the best, most acclaimed books about Vietnam - outstanding ensemble cast too. This has great potential!

Hardy will be starring alongside Tye Sheridan (Ready Player One), Stephan James (Homecoming), Bill Skarsgard (It Chapter One & Two), Pete Davidson (The King of Staten Island), Ashton Sanders (Moonlight), Moises Arias (Monos), Angus Cloud (Euphoria), Martin Sensmeier (The Magnificent Seven) – with the promise that more actors are still yet to be announced.

The film will be directed by Rupert Sanders (Snow White And The Huntsman) and will work with a script based on Tim O’Brien’s collection of stories, which focus on a platoon of young soldiers on the frontline during the Vietnam War.

O’Brien served in Vietnam in the 1960s and incorporates his own experiences into his work. Scott B. Smith, who was nominated for an Oscar for his work on A Simple Plan, will be adapting the script.
