By June 1944, the hunters have become the hunted. After two years of successful North Atlantic operations against allied shipping, the German submarine U-505 is finally cornered and captured by an American Hunter-Killer task force. The submarine’s captain and first officer are grievously wounded in the intense firefight. With the damage sub floundering and a treasure trove of intelligence and equipment on board, an American crew rushes to make repairs and tow the crippled ship back to a protected U.S. port. After waking in an American sick bay, the submarine’s first officer, Paul Meyer, is interrogated by American Naval Intelligence Officer Joe Quigley (Don Johnson). The capture of the crew is an incredible intelligence coup, and Quigley digs deep for German secrets as a wounded Meyer begins to reveal everything in a string of edge of your seat flashbacks.
Don Johnson??!
In the last days of WWII, Germany, desperate for any last grasp to defeat the allied powers, looked to their last remaining weapons and soldiers. The German Navy and the last remaining U-Boats, were formed together for one last mission to attack the United States Homeland. Captain Hans Kessler (Lundgren) a grizzled submarine commander from both world wars, is called into service to help turn the tide of the war. The mission was soon to be known as Operation Seawolf.
Directed by Steven Luke and being sold by VMI Worldwide, the film is set in the final days of the war when Germany sent its remaining U-boats to attack New York.
Dolph Lundgren and Frank Grillo are heading underwater.
The two have teamed up for the WWII thriller Operation Seawolf, which has now wrapped production and landed a number of sales deals — including in the U.S. — for VMI Worldwide.
