Mile 22 (2018, D: Berg) S: Wahlberg, Malkovich, Cohan, Uwais, Rousey
STX Films has set a July 20 North American release for its action-thriller “Mile 22,” starring Mark Wahlberg and John Malkovich.
“Mile 22” follows an elite American intelligence officer who, when aided by a top-secret tactical command unit, tries to smuggle a mysterious police officer with sensitive information out of the country. The movie will be the first in a franchise that STX Films is developing around the “Mile 22” property across platforms.
Lauren Cohan (“The Walking Dead”), Iko Uwais of “The Raid” film series, and Ronda Rousey are also starring.
Peter Berg directed from a script by Graham Roland and Lea Carpenter. Berg is also producing through his Film 44 production company along with Wahlberg for Closest to the Hole and Stephen Levinson for Leverage. John Logan Pierson will executive produce the pic, which has been shooting on location in Atlanta and Bogota, Colombia, and wrapped principal photography this week.
STX said Tuesday that “Mile 22” is being developed on STX’s other platforms, including STX TV and STX Surreal VR, adding that the studio and filmmaking team have also begun developing a sequel to the feature.
Berg and Wahlberg announced “Mile 22” in March at CinemaCon and said they wanted to do a trilogy. Wahlberg and Berg have collaborated on “Lone Survivor,” “Deepwater Horizon,” and “Patriots Day.” Berg directed and produced all three, while Wahlberg starred and was a producer on all three.
“Mile 22” is the second wide release on July 20, joining Universal’s “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.”

Hmm, might be some fun just to see Iko Uwais kick some ass and some of the shootouts.

Yep, definitely a MoviePass viewing, provided I'm not too busy at work (I work in the college retail business and things get busy in August).
I'm also happy to see Lauren Cohan expanding herself beyond Walking Dead. She must feel comfortable enough on her own since she's leaving the show.

Going to see this Mile 22 next weekend at an advanced screening. I like Peter Berg and Markie Mark, so I expect to be reasonably entertained.

I dunno about this one. Seems like Den of Thieves did this already. I didn’t see that, but I do like the players, but not sure...

This doesn’t look anything like Den of Thieves.

Maybe not heist exactly, but i think you know what i mean..."In a visceral modern thriller from the director of Lone Survivor, Mark Wahlberg stars as James Silva, an operative of the CIA's most highly-prized and least-understood unit. Aided by a top-secret tactical command team, Silva must retrieve and transport an asset who holds life-threatening information to Mile 22 for extraction before the enemy closes in." frim IMDb

That's not Den of Thieves at all (and yes, I've seen and even enjoyed it). Actually sounds more like Suicide Squad if anything.

Ok, so maybe it doesn’t look like DoT, but you can’t tell me it doesn’t look like it has the humor from Deadpool 2??
