            One of the biggest Netflix original movies is right around the corner with David Michod’s War Machine. The war satire starring Brad Pitt will be released in just a couple of weeks and we have the final trailer for you right here at Cinema Wave.

            War Machine follows Pitt as decorated U.S. general, Gen. Glenn MacMahon (based on Gen. Stanley McChrystal) who has a level of confidence in the war in Afghanistan that is tarnished when brought down by a journalist’s expose. The trailers have been incredibly funny and absurd that it might just work. The fact that Pitt’s character is based on a real U.S. general is terrifying but it sure makes for a good movie, we hope. It also features one of the best ensemble casts of 2017 potentially so I’m definitely excited for this film.

            Check out the new trailer below for War Machine! The film stars Pitt, Tilda Swinton, Ben Kingsley, Anthony Michael Hall, Topher Grace, Will Poulter, Keith Stanfield, Emory Cohen, John Magaro, RJ Cyler and Scoot McNairy. War Machine is available to stream on Netflix starting on May 26^th.
