Based on the memoirs of Marcus Luttrell, the film details
Luttrell's ordeal as a SEAL, heading into Afghanistan after a Taliban leader
and emerging as the sole survivor.
Luttrell bonded with Berg, a fellow Texas native, who had
used Navy SEALS in the making of The Kingdom, paving the way for Universal to
buy the novel and underlying life rights for Berg's Film 44, Akiva Goldsman's
Weed Road Productions and Barry Spikings' Spikings Entertainment.
Kitsch, who headlines Walt Disney Pictures' John Carter that
releases this weekend in South Africa, was previously rumored for a role. He
worked with Berg on the upcoming Battleship.
