The Outpost - Official Trailer

In theaters and on demand July 3rd!

Based on true events, in this military thriller, a small unit of U.S. soldiers, alone at the remote Combat Outpost Keating, located deep in the valley of three mountains in Afghanistan, battles to defend against an overwhelming force of Taliban fighters in a coordinated attack. The Battle of Kamdesh, as it was known, was the bloodiest American engagement of the Afghan War in 2009 and Bravo Troop 3-61 CAV became one of the most decorated units of the 19-year conflict.

Directed by award-winning filmmaker Rod Lurie (The Contender, The Last Castle) and adapted by Oscar-nominated screenwriting duo Paul Tamasy and Eric Johnson (The Fighter) the film stars Scott Eastwood, Caleb Landry Jones and Orlando Bloom with Jack Kesy, Cory Hardrict, Milo Gibson, Jacob Scipio, Taylor John Smith, Jonathan Yunger. Three troops who fought at COP Keating appear in the film including Medal of Honor recipient Ty Carter.

The Outpost is based on The New York Times best-selling non-fiction book, The Outpost: An Untold Story of American Valor from CNN’s Jake Tapper.

My cousin is in this movie. He’s the medic that goes running through the gunfire. He is an actual Afghan war vet, went to film school, the role happen to come up and he fit the bill for thee position. When he got the position, the director happen to get him the medic (guy my cousin was re-enacting in the film) phone number. So he calls him up and the guy just welcomes him to fly out to his house and hang out for a few days to get to know him so he could play his role correctly. He had a blast on the film, it was intense, many of the former military that were still actually ALIVE were on the set to help the director reenact the various scenes.

As a veteran who served in Afghanistan I'm so glad they are making a movie about this battle. I have always wanted this story told from a movie. These boys deserve this.

[mdrroger]

I was in the korengal valley when this happened... we could hear it all and couldn’t do a thing. God bless this guys.

This is, hands down, the best movie about war I think I've seen in many years. Very realistic and very graphic and needs to be seen. These men did the impossible with almost nothing. If it wasn't for the eventual air support they finally received, there is no doubt they would have been wiped out to the last man.

God bless these men! Also, the end of the movie notes this this was the only battle were two men received the Medal of Valor in the same fight and lived. That is how bad it was.

Who in their right mind would put army camp in that position, absolute madness. These soldiers were incredibly brave.

I met Clint Romashea just after he signed up for the Army back in the late 1990's. He grew up on the other side of the mountain from me. Real nice guy, quiet. Turns out Clint was a bad ass soldier just waiting to happen. He comes from a good well respected family. Clint's Dad did the services for my grandma's funeral. I'm glad they made a movie about what those Soldiers did and the hell they went thru. They more than fuckin deserved it.

I hope Scott Eastwood is in a lot more movies. I like hearing his father's voice in a measure.

It took Blackburn 19 years to recover from his fall and still he hasn't aged.

[elmestengo]

One of the most underrated war movies. Absolutely heroic, wow this was good!

[dakotaparker]

This is legit the best movie I’ve ever seen in my life you can feel what these guys went through on that day and the days leading up to this and the efforts they put fourth to make peace with these guys

just finished this movie - the trailer doesn't do the film justice - the film is a way better than I expected. I had read "The Outpost" months before. The set-up to the main battle was very engaging - you get a feel of the characters - either you loved 'em or hated 'em - the Ty Carter character (Caleb Landry Jones) carries the film's emotional arc - he's very good and I rooted for him the whole time. There is a brilliantly funny scene wherein a soldier, who was about to take a shower, starts shooting back at the enemy - butt naked - the way the camera was set up for that was ingenious - it's an unforgettably funny moment. The combat scenes were intense - there's no let up - it's the best I've ever seen. The downsides were the computer generated Apache strikes (I wish there were better angles on those birds) as well as the lack of emotional suspense leading up to those airstrikes. The filmmakers should have devoted more time keeping the audience on edge until the bombs started to drop. Scott Eastwood is very engaging as well - he sounds just like his father - he had a winning on film on this one. Great film - up there with "Black Hawk Down".

I love it that the director is including Lt. Benjamin Keating and Cpt. Rob Yllescas in the story... like Jake Tapper's book, the story of COP Keating starts well before the fateful battle in October of 2009. The battle of Kamdesh was a culmination of well meaning but terrible planning on the part of military leaders. And too many heroes paid for it.

[__TheWiseMan__]

I hope this one gets the facts right and pays respect to the events that day and not just another war action movie

Update: saw it and it’s one of the best war movies I’ve ever seen. Very real and very heavy

[eugenedavis]

Being a Combat Veteran from the first Gulf War I notice there was no Camouflage Netting to secure the Outpost, if there was these guys would have lived to tell a Story.

[akmalbruhaha]

How many F-words screamed out in this movie?

The Outpost : YES.

[userisdead]

As someone from Afghanistan i am happy they made this movie
