Henry Cavill unveils new The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare poster ahead of release

DC’s former Superman, Henry Cavill, will soon be seen in Guy Ritchie’s The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, to be released on April 19, 2024. The movie is based on Damien Lewis’ book Churchill's Secret Warriors: The Explosive True Story of the Special Forces Desperadoes of WWII. It will revolve around the all-too-real Special Operations Executive team that Winston Churchill created to engage in guerrilla or irregular warfare against Nazi Germany.

As the excitement continues to mount, fans will be delighted to know the extent of the movie's stellar cast. Apart from Cavill, it also includes the likes of Eiza González and Alan Ritchson, who is still fresh off the success he got from Amazon Prime’s Reacher.

The movie, directed by Ritchie alone but written alongside Paul Tamasy, Eric Johnson, and Arash Amel, will portray the real-life stories of brave soldiers who joined the Special Operations Executive team.

Adding to the excitement, Henry Cavill released the first poster of the upcoming release via Instagram.
