Here’s your first trailer for Netflix’s WWII thriller Munich: The Edge Of War, which debuted earlier this year at the London Film Festival.
Based on the novel by Robert Harris, the film is set in fall 1938 when Europe stands on the brink of war. Adolf Hitler is preparing to invade Czechoslovakia and Neville Chamberlain’s government desperately seeks a peaceful solution. With the pressure building, Hugh Legat, British civil servant, and Paul von Hartmann, German diplomat, travel to Munich for the emergency Conference. As negotiations begin, the two old friends find themselves at the centre of a web of political subterfuge.
George MacKay, Jannis Niewöhner, Jessica Brown Findlay, August Diehl, Sandra Huller and Oscar winner Jeremy Irons lead cast. Christian Schwochow directs from Ben Power’s adaptation. Andrew Eaton produces.
The movie is slated to hit “select cinemas on January 7 and Netflix on January 21”.
