STORY LINE
Henry Cavill ("Man of Steel") stars as Napoleon Solo opposite Armie
Hammer ("The Social Network") as Illya Kuryakin in director Guy
Ritchie's "The Man from U.N.C.L.E.," a fresh take on the hugely popular
1960s television series. Set against the backdrop of the early 1960s, at
the height of the Cold War, "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." centers on CIA
agent Solo and KGB agent Kuryakin. Forced to put aside longstanding
hostilities, the two team up on a joint mission to stop a mysterious
international criminal
organization, which is bent on destabilizing the fragile balance of
power through the proliferation of nuclear weapons and technology. The
duo's only lead is the daughter of a vanished German scientist, who is
the key to infiltrating the criminal organization, and they must race
against time to find him and prevent a worldwide catastrophe. "The Man
from U.N.C.L.E" also stars Alicia Vikander ("Anna Karenina"), Elizabeth
Debicki ("The Great Gatsby"), with Jared Harris ("Sherlock Holmes: Game
of Shadows"), and Hugh Grant as Waverly. The screenplay was written by
Guy Ritchie & Lionel Wigram, who previously collaborated on
re-imagining the classic detective Sherlock Holmes in two hit films. The
story is by Jeff Kleeman & David Campbell Wilson and Guy Ritchie
& Lionel Wigram, based on the television series "The Man from
U.N.C.L.E." John Davis ("Chronicle"), Steve Clark-Hall ("RocknRolla,"
the "Sherlock Holmes" films), Wigram and Ritchie produced the film, with
David Dobkin serving as executive producer. Ritchie's behind-the-scenes
creative team included two-time Oscar (R)-nominated director of
photography John Mathieson ("The Phantom of the Opera," "Gladiator"),
production designer Oliver Scholl ("Jumper," "Edge of Tomorrow"), editor
James Herbert (the "Sherlock Holmes" films, "Edge of Tomorrow"), and
Oscar (R)-nominated costume designer Joanna Johnston ("Lincoln"). The
music is composed by Daniel Pemberton ("The Counselor").(c) Warner Bros
