Triple Frontier trailer: Ben Affleck and Oscar Isaac star in Netflix heist movie from Oscar-winning screenwriter

An elite group of Special Forces operatives decide to use their skills for their own benefit

Netflix has released the first trailer for Triple Frontier, an action movie set in South America and starring Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac, Pedro Pascal and Charlie Hunnam.

“Do we finally get to use our skills for our own benefit?” This question is posed in the trailer and is central to the movie, which focuses on a group of Special Forces operatives who reunite and plan a mission that’s for their own benefit this time rather than their country’s.

A heist is planned in a multi-border area of South America, proving to be more complicated than the unit expected.

The film was directed by JC Chandor (A Most Violent Year), who co-wrote the script with Mark Boal, a two-time Oscar winner for his work on The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty.

According to Deadline, Kathryn Bigelow, Tom Hanks, Will Smith, Johnny Depp, Channing Tatum, and Tom Hardy had all previously shown interest in the long gestating project.

Triple Frontier is set for a March 2019 release.
