First Look: Zero Dark Thirty Trailer

Kathryn Bigelow’s Osama bin Laden film, Zero Dark Thirty, has its first trailer. Sony has officially debuted the trailer for the dramatic retelling of the mission to capture and/or kill bin Laden which stars Joel Edgerton, Jessica Chastain, Edgar Ramirez, Mark Strong, Kyle Chandler, Nash Edgerton, and Jennifer Ehle, and reunites The Hurt Locker team of Bigelow and screenweriter Mark Boal.
 
And in an interview with Entertainment Weekly in support of the trailer’s release, Boal explained his interest in exploring the U.S. Navy SEAL Team Six’s mission. “I’m fascinated by people who dedicate themselves to really difficult and dangerous things for the greater good. I think they’re heroic and I’m intrigued by them. I’m fascinated by the world they inhabit. I personally want to know how they caught bin Laden. All I can do is hope that it interests other people,” said Boal [read the rest of the interview here].
