Grillo Tries To Find Osama

Frank Grillo will reunnite with his "Warrior" co-star Joel Edgerton in Kathryn Bigelow's topical and as yet Untiled Bin Landen war drama says Variety.

Writer Mark Boal extensively researched the film which centers on an elite Black Ops team's attempt to assassinate Osama bin Laden almost a decade ago, an effort that came very close to succeeding. His death last year meant a few rewrites.

Jessica Chastain, Idris Elba, Kyle Chandler, Edgar Ramirez, Tom Hardy, Chris Pratt, Guy Pearce Jennifer Ehle Harold Perrineau Fares Fares Nash Edgerton and Mark Strong also star.

Boal, Bigelow and Megan Ellison are producing the film.

The pic has December 19th release date.

This film is not to be confused with John Stockwell's true bin Laden actioner Code Name Geronimo that's been filming for weeks.
