Eye In The Sky pictures: The thriller arrives in U.S. cinemas in March, and in the UK in April.
A new batch of Eye In The Sky pictures have been released. The upcoming film is the final on-screen performance from Alan Rickman, and also stars Helen Mirren, Aaron Paul, Barkhad Abdi, Jeremy Northam, Iain Glen and Phoebe Fox.
EYE IN THE SKY stars Helen Mirren as Colonel Katherine Powell, a UK-based military officer in command of a top secret drone operation to capture terrorists in Kenya. Through remote surveillance and on-the-ground intel, Powell discovers the targets are planning a suicide bombing and the mission escalates from “capture” to “kill.” But as American pilot Steve Watts (Aaron Paul) is about to engage, a nine-year old girl enters the kill zone, triggering an international dispute reaching the highest levels of US and British government over the moral, political, and personal implications of modern warfare.
The film is directed by Gavin Hood (TSOTSI) and written by Guy Hibbert (Prime Suspect). Producers are Ged Doherty, Colin Firth and David Lancaster.
Alan Rickman sadly passed away back in January, while this isn’t technically the last film he’ll be credited with (he lends his voice to the upcoming Alice Through The Looking Glass), it is his final on-screen performance.
Eye In The Sky will be released by Bleeker Street, the company that released Trumbo on domestic soil (it opens this week in the UK) last year, as well as the upcoming Elvis & Nixon with Michael Shannon and Kevin Spacey.
Check out the new Eye In The Sky pictures below. The film opens in U.S. cinemas on March 11th, 2016. It will debut in UK cinemas on 8th April, 2016.
