Michael Bay, known for his action films, will direct a movie about Operation 'Epic Fury', a military mission of the Trump administration in Iran. The project will be based on an upcoming book by journalist Mitchell Zuckoff and will recount the rescue of two American pilots whose F-15E Strike Eagle was shot down during the American attack on Iran in April.

Bay will highlight the heroism of the military personnel involved in the operation, continuing his collaboration with Zuckoff after the success of the film '13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi'. The project comes in a tense geopolitical context, where U.S. defense spending is increasing, and the subject remains controversial. Although there is no official release date, Bay's spectacular style is already generating expectations and criticism.
