Images and Info on Relativity’s Navy SEAL Movie ‘Act of Valor,’ Starring Real Navy SEALs

The Navy SEALs got a massive PR boost when the killing of Osama Bin Laden was announced. Not that the special forces team really needed a boost, given that the SEALs are one of the most highly-regarded military teams in the world. But the boost came regardless, and one of the aftereffects is that quite a few companies want to make movies or TV about the team and the operations it undertakes.

While Kathryn Bigelow and Mark Boal seemed to have the jump on everyone with their film that has been referred to as Kill Bin Laden (not the final title), it turns out that another SEALs film has already been shot, and Relativity just bought it for an early 2012 release. (Think: President’s Day.) The film is called Act of Valor (once called I Am That Man) and it stars actual Navy SEALs. Some images from set and more info are after the break.
Deadline announced the deal with Relativity, and prints a press release announcing that Act of Valor was “directed by ex-stuntmen and documentary filmmakers/commercial directors Mike “Mouse” McCoy (Dust to Glory) and Scott Waugh (Step Into Liquid) and written by Kurt Johnstad (300).”

Here’s the synopsis:

Act of Valor follows a Navy Seal squad on a covert mission to recover a kidnapped CIA agent, and in the process takes down a complex web of terrorist cells determined to strike America at all costs. The filmmakers had unprecedented Naval access resulting in high-octane combat sequences and never-before-seen military operation scenes which are composited from actual events in the lives of the men appearing in the film and their comrades.


The cast includes Roselyn Sanchez (Rush Hour 2) and Emilio Rivera (Traffic) as well as several active-duty Navy SEALs. So is this an action movie, a recruitment film, or both? The film was made with the active participation of the US military, so I’ll let you make that call. (The directors of Act of Valor have also made actual Navy recruitment films, if that helps you decide.)

The Film Stage dug up some more info on the film via cinematographer Shane Hurlbut (forever to be known as the guy who incurred the wrath of Christian Bale). He shot the film on a Canon 5D Mark II, and offers up some info on his own site. Here’s his description of using a helmetcam setup to create a firefight:

We set the helmet cam up with all the bells and whistles. When that rig moved into rooms, it was something that I had never seen before. It was intimate, visceral and smooth. I wanted this film to have a GAMER feel to it. That first person shooter perspective that has been so powerful in all the video games like Call of Duty. This felt like that but with real Navy SEAL’s on the gun. Zeiss helped me take this movie up 4 notches with this unique perspective. The 18mm did not bend too much and delivered sharp, realistic footage. We used this lens for all of our gun fights. When the SEALS would shoot people at night, you would see the laser coming from the barrel with shells flying out of the chamber; the gunsight and the bad guy that the SEAL was shooting in the heart. It was now done with cinematic quality. Not helmet cams where everything is in focus. This 5D helmet cam had a beautiful focus fall off. We could rack from the gunsight to the bad guy, or to the shells flying out to the bad guy.

The action movie starring real Navy SEALs
Before Hollywood could cast a Navy SEAL movie, some of the elite commandos are going ahead and starring in one themselves

posted on June 15, 2011, at 7:30 AM

In the wake of last month's dramatically successful Navy SEAL mission to kill Osama bin Laden, Hollywood producers are desperate to crank out a movie portraying the events. But first, moviegoers will get an intimate look at the elite military unit in another Navy SEAL movie, starring real Navy SEALs. Here, a brief instant guide:

What is the film?
Called Act of Valor, it will tell the story of a SEAL squad on a mission to find a kidnapped CIA agent and take down some terrorists. The main themes are said to be "that a SEAL's work is never done and that it involves extraordinary talent and dedication."

Was the film conceived after the successful SEAL mission to kill Osama bin Laden?
No, it's been two years in the making and was recently completed. So as other filmmakers put together their projects focusing on the SEALs, Relativity Media is reportedly planning to release Act of Valor in 2012. Some are betting it will be released around a patriotic holiday such as Presidents' or Veterans Day. And it's not the only SEAL project in the pipeline. Katherine Bigelow, the Oscar-winning director of The Hurt Locker, is also working on one.

Who are the filmmakers?
The film was made by an independent studio called Bandito Brothers, and directed by Scott Waugh and Mike McCoy. They have worked together on action-packed documentaries, incuding one on the Navy, and done stunts in larger films. The script was written by Kurt Johnstad, who worked on the screenplay for 300. Reportedly, they kept the budget as low as $15 million by using mobile Canon cameras and working with the Navy on action sequences, like high-altitude parachute jumps, that otherwise would have cost a fortune.

Why was the Navy so cooperative?
For one thing, it gets to keep the raw footage for promotional purposes. But the main reason is that it was the Navy that conceived the project in the first place. After Sept. 11, the Defense Department sought to beef up its special-operations forces, which meant adding 500 SEALs to the existing force of 2,450. Capt. Duncan Smith, a SEAL spokesman, launched PR and recruitment efforts, and decided a feature film about the SEALs would help. He got proposals from several filmmakers, and the Bandito Brothers, who had previously worked on Navy commercials, won.

Who are the SEALs featured in the film?
Fourteen SEALs near the end of their deployment years were selected for the cast. Initially, all said no. "That actually reassured me that I picked the right men," Smith says. "They joined the SEALs to get real work done, not be in Hollywood movies. But they were told this would be a legitimate task." For security and anonymity reasons, the SEALs' real last names will not be featured in the credits.
