We have our first look at the upcoming Ben Stiller war comedy Tropic Thunder today thanks to out friends at cinematical:
Plot outline from IMDB: Through a series of freak occurrences, a group of actors shooting a big-budget war movie are forced to become the soldiers they are portraying.
The above picture looks like a standard war movie shot, but a few things stand out. The first being that the black man in the middle is Robert Downey Jr. The second thing that leaps out at me is the Ben Stiller gun show. Dude has some fuckin’ arms. I am not sure if he has always had them, and I didn’t notice, but here the guns are out for the world to see – and they are ready for action!
I wouldn’t say this film is on my most anticipated list, my feelings are neutral, but I will certainly check it out when released.
Tropic Thunder is set to launch in theaters August 15, 2008
