Scott Eastwood has been added to the ensemble cast of David Ayer’s upcoming World War II actioner Fury, Deadline reports. There, he’ll join the likes of Brad Pitt, Shia LaBeouf, Logan Lerman and Michael Pena.
Set at the very end of World War II, in April 1945, Fury follows the battle-hardened Wardaddy, who commands a Sherman tank and her five-man crew on a deadly mission behind enemy lines. Outnumbered and outgunned, Wardaddy and his men face overwhelming odds in their heroic attempts to strike at the heart of Nazi Germany.
Eastwood, who recently starred in Texas Chainsaw 3D, will play a member of the tank regiment named Sergeant Miles.
QED is producing the film with John Leshers Le Grisbi Productions and Ethan Smith. Alex Ott is co-producing the feature with Ayer. Principal photography is set to begin in September 2013 and Columbia anticipates releasing Fury on November 14, 2014.
