Kathryn Bigelow‘s Zero Dark Thirty remains one of the most guarded films of 2012 as only this morning did we learn James Gandolfini plays a major role in the picture and the film comes out only two months from now on December 19. Well, it appears the veil is slowly lifting as today we also get a new trailer for the film, which centers on the hunt to capture Osama bin Laden and this time we’re getting a lot more of the story as the teaser offered little to nothing.
Written by Mark Boal (The Hurt Locker), Bigelow explained the origin of its title saying it comes from the, “[The] military term for 30 minutes after midnight [as well as] the darkness and secrecy that cloaked the entire decade-long mission.”
Here’s the official synopsis:
For a decade, an elite team of intelligence and military operatives, working in secret across the globe, devoted themselves to a single goal: to find and eliminate Osama bin Laden. Zero Dark Thirty reunites the Oscar-winning team of director-producer Kathryn Bigelow and writer-producer Mark Boal (The Hurt Locker) for the story of history’s greatest manhunt for the world’s most dangerous man.
Among the members of the cast, including Gandolfini, are Jessica Chastain, Jason Clarke, Joel Edgerton, Mark Strong, Jennifer Ehle, Kyle Chandler and Edgar Ramirez.
