Harrison is making history
K-19: THE WIDOWMAKER
RELEASED: Out Now
UIP
1hr 38min
HARRISON Ford and Liam
Neeson star in a thrilling drama about what many believe
to be the most dangerous time in global history.
K-19: THE WIDOWMAKER
takes place at the height of the Cold War - when the
only mechanism for peace was mutually assured destruction
and people around the globe felt tension on a daily
basis.
The story is inspired
by a chilling event that happened in 1961 when the
Soviet Union had enough nuclear weapons to destroy
the world two times over and the United States had
the power to destroy it ten times over.
Based on a true story,
the film follows the heroism of Captain Alexei Vostrikov,
played by Harrison Ford.
At the height of the
Cold War, he is ordered to take command of the nuclear
missile submarine K-19 away from its original commander
Captain Mikhail Polenin (Neeson).
Vostrikovs
mission is to quickly ready the ill-prepared sub for
her maiden voyage - no matter what the cost.
But Vostrikov, Polenin
and K-19s
loyal crew can never imagine all that is expected
of them.
Neither can they fathom
what the price of failure might be for them and for
the world when a nuclear reactor malfunctions, threatening
a core meltdown and an explosion that will certainly
kill all aboard.
You can watch the trailer
and exclusive interviews with the stars and director
of K-19 right here.
