Munich
Spielberg's gripping suspense thriller

United International Pictures will release MUNICH, a Universal Pictures and DreamWorks Pictures production, in the UK and Ireland on 27th January 2006.

Steven Spielberg directs an international cast in MUNICH, a gripping suspense thriller set in the aftermath of the massacre of 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics. This dramatic exploration inspired by true events follows a secret Israeli squad assigned to track down and kill the 11 Palestinians suspected to have planned the Munich attack-and the personal toll this mission of revenge takes on the team and the man who led it.

The international cast includes Eric Bana (Troy), Daniel Craig (Layer Cake, Road to Perdition), Ciarán Hinds (Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera), Mathieu Kassovitz (Birthday Girl), Hanns Zischler (Walk on Water) and Geoffrey Rush (Shine). The script is the first feature by Tony Kushner winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the Tony Award and many other awards for his epochal Broadway drama Angels in America as well as its Emmy Award-winning adaptation for HBO screened on Channel 4. The film is produced by Kathleen Kennedy as well as Barry Mendel, Steven Spielberg and Colin Wilson.
