Universal Pictures has set a January 10, 2014 release for director Peter Berg’s Lone Survivor, starring Mark Wahlberg, Taylor Kitsch, Ben Foster, Emile Hirsch and Eric Bana.
The film tells the story of four Navy SEALs on an ill-fated covert mission to neutralize a high-level Taliban operative when they are ambushed by enemy forces in the Hindu Kush region of Afghanistan.
Lone Survivor is based on The New York Times bestseller, a story of heroism, courage and survival.
Other films scheduled for the January 10 are Grudge Match, starring Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro, and Jessabelle, the Lionsgate horror film.
