Watch Henry Cavill Lead a Nazi-Killing Team in the Trailer for Guy Ritchie’s ‘The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare’

Based upon recently declassified files of the British War Department and inspired by true events, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is an action-comedy that tells the story of the first-ever special forces organisation formed during WWII by UK Prime Minister Winston Churchill and a small group of military officials including author Ian Fleming.

The top-secret combat unit, whose leader is played by Man of Steel’s Henry Cavill, is composed of a motley crew of rogues and mavericks; and goes on a daring mission against the Nazis using entirely unconventional and utterly “ungentlemanly” fighting techniques. Ultimately their audacious approach changed the course of the war and laid the foundation for the British SAS and modern Black Ops warfare.

The film is directed by Guy Ritchie (Sherlock Holmes, The Gentlemen), and alongside Cavill, the film stars Eiza González, Alan Ritchson, Alex Pettyfer, Hero Fiennes Tiffin, Babs Olusanmokun, Henrique Zaga, Til Schweiger, with Henry Golding, and Cary Elwes.

The film hits cinemas on 19 April 2024. Check out the trailer below:
