Teaser Trailer for CIA Thriller KANDAHAR Starring Gerard Butler

A teaser trailer has been released for the CIA thriller film Kandahar, starring Gerard Butler (300, Olympus Has Fallen, Plane). He is joined in the film by Navid Negahban, Ali Fazal, Travis Fimmel, and Elnaaz Norouzi. The movie was directed by Ric Roman Waugh, who has previously worked with Butler on Angel Has Fallen and Greenland. The screenplay is written by Mitchell LaFortune in his feature writing debut.

Here’s the synopsis:

Tom Harris (Butler), an undercover CIA operative, is stuck deep in hostile territory in Afghanistan. After his mission is exposed, he must fight his way out, alongside his Afghan translator, to an extraction point in Kandahar, all the while avoiding elite enemy forces and foreign spies tasked with hunting them down.

This looks like a solid action flick, right in Butler’s wheelhouse. Check out the teaser below, and watch Kandahar in theaters on May 26th.
