Sgt. Rock history and details of the character revealed; Cillian Murphy and Mikey Madison have offered roles

The world devastated by the war of Sgt. Rock It was almost put alive as a film, that is, until DC Studios has pulled the plug on the production.

While the project is currently set aside, New Intel of Nexus Point News offers new details on what could have been an epic of gritty action and led by the Second World War by the director Luca Guadagnino (Call me with your name, Bones and everything else).

Let’s start with the casting carousel: Colin Farrell According to reports, he had entered talks to interpret the gray war hero. Frank Rock after both Daniel Craig AND Jeremy Allen White transmitted the role.

Farrell’s involvement was always tenuous, especially with Part II of Batman Increase. In the meantime, Oppenheimer star Cillian Murphy The command was also offered, but refused it.

On the main female side, the role of Mademoiselle Marie, which is the love interest of rock and a fierce fighter for freedom, was offered to both Mikey Madison (Cry, Once upon a time in Hollywood) AND Wave burst Taylor Russell.

As for the story, “the film would have followed Sergeant Frank Rock, Mademoiselle Marie and the easy company while fighting the Nazis in a battle to recover the Lancia del Destino in the World War 2.”

So, it seems that it would have been a lot of fun! The same easy company was stacked with the following characters:

• Bulldozer: The group’s hothead muscle, late of the 1920s.

• Wildman: The loyal right doctor of rock with a large red beard.

• Jackie Johnson: Ex boxing of the heavyweights, mid -1920s.

• School: An Apache sniper with sharp eyes.

• Bean pole: A 19 -year -old granadier and translator.

• Dash: An 18 -year -old star of the 18 -year -old track in ammunition (according to what reported by the name Philip Mason, a nod to the ice cream soldier).

• Four eyes: A 19 -year -old comic artist Nerd, yes, really.

• Junior: Only 17, enlisted after lying on his age.

• Johnny Doe: An original creation: a soldier that Tacche kills on his rifle as trophies.

Challengers star Mike Faist According to reports, he was ready to interpret Johnny Doe, meeting with Guadagnino. David Jonsson (Rye Lane, Alien: Alliance) had been observed for Jackie Johnson, but this was not eliminated.

The film would have been shot mostly outdoors on the spot in the United Kingdom for six weeks, but according to reports, the weather conditions played a role in the arrest of progress.

There was talk of trying again in 2026, but with earnings already juggling as projects such as American Psycho, Separate roomsAND Lord of the FliesThat window could close.

Some insiders hypothesized that “Guadagnino remained not tested in the reign of action films, and even if the budget was in the range of $ 70 million, a miserable sum for comic movies, the superiors may have waned in their trust”.

So I will do it Sgt. Rock Have you ever seen the battlefield? Difficult to say. It is a cool and unusual corner of the DC universe, which blends the war drama, the supernatural elements and the classic comic grit. We will just have to wait and see if the film is in the end one day.
