Back around the end of January, word broke that Oblivion director Joseph Kosinski had signed on to direct true-life firefighting tale No Exit. We now know at least two people who will be starring in the film, as Josh Brolin and Miles Teller are on board.
Written by Black Hawk Down's Ken Nolan, No Exit will follow the story of the Granite Mountain Hotshots, a group within the Prescott Fire Department in Arizona specialising in battling wildfires. They were sent into action in June 2013 against the Yarnell Hill Fire, which threatened the Arizona town of Yarnell.
In the searing heat and changeable weather conditions, the fire turned especially deadly, and 19 of the 20 men were killed. It represented the the greatest loss of life for firefighters in a wildfire since 1933, the deadliest wildfire of any kind since 1991, and the biggest loss of firefighters in the United States since September 11.
Kosinski and Nolan are developing the movie, which doesn't have a shooting or release date just yet. Brolin will be back on our screens this week with the Coen Brothers' Hail, Caesar!, while Teller has The Divergent Series: Allegiant due on March 10.
