LONE SURVIVOR is a 2013 American war film written and directed by Peter Berg, and starring Mark Wahlberg, Taylor Kitsch, Emile Hirsch, Ben Foster, and Eric Bana. It is based on the 2007 nonfiction book of the same name by Marcus Luttrell and Patrick Robinson. The film depicts events of the failed United States Navy SEALs mission Operation Red Wings during the War in Afghanistan, in which four SEAL teammates were tasked to capture or kill Taliban leader Ahmad Shah.
Berg first learned of the book in 2007 while filming Hancock, and he later pursued the film rights by meeting with Luttrell to discuss a film adaptation. After bidding against Warner Bros., Sony Pictures, Paramount Pictures and DreamWorks, Universal Studios won the film rights in August 2007, with Berg attached as writer and director. Berg however could not get support or funding for the project until after filming Battleship (2012) for Universal. Principal photography for Lone Survivor began in October 2012, and concluded after 42 days; filming took place on location in New Mexico. In addition, the main actors had three weeks of military training beforehand to prepare for the physical demands of their roles.
Lone Survivor premiered at the AFI Film Festival on November 12, 2013. On December 3, 2013, the film held its red carpet premiere at the Ziegfeld Theatre, where it received a standing ovation. The film opened in limited release in the United States on December 27, 2013; it will have a general release in North America on January 10, 2014.
