The movie is based on the true story of British Intelligence operatives using unprecedented strategic operations to fool Nazi leadership and help change the course of World War II.
With historical consultation from Joshua Levine (Dunkirk), the film follows the brilliance of British Army officers Dudley Clarke and Thomas Argyll “Tar” Robertson, who deployed an elaborate web of deception campaigns, including fictitious armies, fake military equipment, and a network of double agents to mislead Nazi Intelligence. Among them was Yugoslavian playboy Dusko Popov, a real-life double agent who is said to have inspired Ian Fleming’s James Bond character.
The screenplay is by Simon Afram (Lear Rex), who is also producing alongside Georgette Turner (location manager, Wonder Woman), Reza Roohi (ATL Hustle), and Edward Kahl (Queen of Manhattan).
Executive producers include Bianca Goodloe and David Scaramanga. Casting is by Rich Mento, CSA. Goodloe Law is legal counsel and the production company of record is listed as Op-Fortitude Ltd.
