Originally entitled Kill Bin Laden, the movie tells the story of Seal Team 6 and their capture and assassinatin of Osama Bin Laden.
The movie was given the green light before Osama bin Laden was actually tracked down and assassintated. The original ending for the movie was going to be a fictionlized killing of Osama bin Laden – until he was actually killed by the American military and fiction became fact.
From the Oscar winning director of The Hurt Locker – the most unpopular (at the movie box office) Best Picture and Best Director Oscar winning movie of all time.
