Lionsgate have released a new batch of images for their movie Patriots Day which is a retelling of the Boston Marathon bombing that happened back in 2013 tragically taking 3 lives and injuring a further 264 people.

The two pressure cooker bombs were set off 190 metres apart close to the finish line with the pictures being beamed across the globe shocking all who saw. What followed was an FBI man-hunt for the two suspects, brothers Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Tamerlan Tsarnaev. The movie takes us through exactly what happened on the day of the event and its ultimate conclusion which saw those who tried to stop the pair sadly killed and ultimately the two terrorists also being shot and killed.

Much like Peter Director Berg’s previous film Deepwater Horizon, the movie focuses on the real life everyday heroes who inspired the world in the hours that followed the tragic event.

Peter Berg reunites with Deepwater Horizon and Lone Survivor star Mark Wahlberg (who is a proud Bostonian himself) alongside Michelle Monaghan, John Goodman, Kevin Bacon, J.K. Simmons and Alex Wolff.

Patriots Day is released in the UK early 2017 and if you’ve not seen the trailer for the film yet, click this way for our previous post.
