A Modern Take On A Classic
The movie looks to be a blend of many classic alien movie themes, only this time it appears to include time-travel as a primary plot device. Indeed, the war that this movie reverences in its title is one that humanity wouldn’t face for another 30 years.
That all changed when future soldiers came to Chris’ timeline and recruited people to win a war before it starts. The premise of the film provides a refreshing take on the sci-fi warfare drama.
Military Prowess
Pratt looks to be playing a father who is ex-military.
His prior service keeps him out of conscription for a time, but as things become desperate, he is forced to re-enlist so that his wife isn’t forcibly put into the military.
When he joins, he finds out that he will be working alongside civilians who have little prior training. Although it isn’t exactly revealed if he is a squad leader, it becomes clear that his seniority among his squad mates turns him into a go-to leader in tough situations.
Dad Humor
And speaking of tough situations, the trailer shows cities burning to the ground as the carnage unfolds!
The movie is looking to be one of the hottest releases of this year, and it will be Chris’ first Executive Producer credit!
The studly star has shared on multiple occasions that he loves to have fun and keep things lighthearted on set, and it shows! The trailer shows several moments when his “dad humor” shows, ironic given that the story situation is so very grim.
Playing Dad As A Real Father
Chris’s wife Katherine Schwarzenegger, daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger, recently claimed in an interview that she and her husband just “clicked.”
“We talk about that a lot because I’m pretty sure we both knew right away that this is where our relationship was headed, and we clicked very quickly and so he is the best.”
She went on to share that she is so proud of her man, especially now that they have kids!
“And I am so, so grateful and it’s so beautiful to be able to watch him step into this new role of being a girl dad and he’s the best husband and best dad and I feel so grateful every single day for him.”
The last time that fans saw this much love between the pair was when Katherine was pregnant.
