Michael Bay, the filmmaker behind Pearl Harbor, Pain & Gain and the Transformers movies, is set to direct a film about Operation Epic Fury.
The Universal Pictures film will be based on the true story of April’s rescue of two downed American pilots in Iran after their F-15E Strike Eagle was struck down during the US’ attack on the country.
The news was reported by Deadline, whose sources told them that Bay will chronicle the extraordinary heroism of the two US airmen behind enemy lines.
