Nat Wolff And Alexander Skarsgard Team Up For The Kill Team

 

Nat Wolff is teaming up with Alexander Skarsgård for his next project, a feature film adaptation of The Kill Team. Based on Dan Krauss’ acclaimed war documentary, the project chronicles the story of Private Adam Winfield, a young American soldier trapped between his conscience and survival when members of his platoon carry out a murderous scheme in the wasteland of Southern Afghanistan.

Wolff is attached to the lead role of Winfield, while Skarsgård steps into the boots of his superior – the imposing Sergeant Deeks. Perhaps most exciting of all is news that Krauss is on board to write and direct this feature-length version of his doc, one which Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey will produce on behalf of Temple Hill Entertainment.

Coming off indie dramas in the vein of Paper Towns and The Fault in Our Stars, The Kill Team heralds a welcome change of pace for Nat Wolff, and ought to offer up plenty of dramatic material to chew on. Skarsgård, meanwhile, is hot off this summer’s Legend of Tarzan reboot, and will soon be bound for the Berlin of the future courtesy of Duncan Jones’ long-anticipated passion project, Mute.

Krauss’ feature spin on The Kill Team is currently simmering in pre-production, indicating that filming will commence in the early stages of 2017.
