Lionsgate has provided ComingSoon.net with an exclusive
first look at the poster for Deepwater Horizon, starring Mark Wahlberg as real-life hero Mike
Williams.
Inspired by the true story that occurred on an
oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico on April 20, 2010, the story chronicles the
courage of those who worked on the Deepwater Horizon and the extreme moments of
bravery and survival in the face of what would become one of the biggest
man-made disasters in world history.
The film stars Academy Award nominee Mark
Wahlberg (Lone Survivor, The Fighter) alongside Golden Globe nominee Kurt Russell (Furious 7, The Hateful Eight), Academy Award nominee John Malkovich (RED, Burn After Reading), Dylan O’Brien (The Maze Runner), Golden Globe winner Gina Rodriguez (“Jane the
Virgin”), and Academy Award nominee Kate Hudson (Almost Famous, Nine).
Peter Berg (Lone Survivor, Battleship) is directing the screenplay written by Matthew Sand and Matthew
Michael Carnahan (The Kingdom).
The screenplay is based upon the 2010 New York Times article Deepwater Horizon’s Final Hours by David Barstow, David Rohde and Stephanie
Saul. Lorenzo di Bonaventura (Transformers, RED)
and Mark Vahradian (Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, RED)
are producing for di Bonaventura Pictures along with Wahlberg, Stephen
Levinson, David Womark (Life of Pi)
for Closest to the Hole and Leverage Entertainment. The film is executive
produced by Jeff Skoll and Jonathan King at Participant Media.
Lionsgate is set to release Deepwater Horizon via its Summit Entertainment label
in North America on September 30, 2016.
