Brad Pitt, the guys and a 33 ton Sherman Tank are ready to break through enemy lines in the brand new poster for the upcoming movie, FURY.

Directed by David Ayer, FURY stars Brad Pitt as “Wardaddy,” a Sherman tank commander who must guide his men into the heart of Nazi Germany during the last month of World War II. The film includes Shia LeBeouf, Logan Lerman, Michael Peña, Jon Bernthal, Jason Isaacs and Scott Eastwood.

The first to bear a fully-rotating turret with a 75 mm gun, the Sherman Tanks were named after the American Civil War Union General William T. Sherman. (Sherman made the infamous March to the Sea from Chattanooga to Atlanta). 

With almost 50,000 manufactured during World War II, these remarkable tanks provided critical armored support to Allied ground troops. For more on the Sherman Tanks, click HERE.

Columbia Pictures will release the World War II film during awards season on October 17 and will be the closing night film at the 58th BFI London Film Festival on Oct. 19.

What kind of Oscar contender will the film be? With a big cast led by Brad Pitt and directed by END OF WATCH director Ayer, Anne Thompson of Thompson on Hollywood/Indiewire postulates, “The awards question is whether this movie leans toward the artful naturalism of Kathryn Bigelow’s “The Hurt Locker,” the spectacular humanism of Steven Spielberg’s “Saving Private Ryan,” or the accessible commerciality of Peter Berg’s “Lone Survivor”.

FURY has been rated R by the MPAA for the following reasons: STRONG SEQUENCES OF WAR VIOLENCE, SOME GRISLY IMAGES, AND LANGUAGE THROUGHOUT.
