13 HOURS: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi.
DIRECTOR Michael Bay (Transformers) puts his testosterone-fuelled spin on the real-life attack on a US compound in Libya in September 2012, which resulted in the death of an American Ambassador.
In 13 Hours, Jack Silva (John Krasinski), David Benton (David Denman), Mark Geist (Max Martini), Kris Paronto (Pablo Schreiber), John Tiegen (Dominic Fumusa) and Tyrone Woods (James Badge Dale) are former Navy SEALs, Marine and Army Rangers, who now risk their lives protecting US officials under the moniker of the Global Response Staff (GRS).
In September 2012, they are stationed at a CIA compound in Benghazi, under the watchful eye of the station chief, Bob (David Costabile). The US Ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens (Matt Letscher), makes a visit to the region and is slain by Islamic militants.
The members of GRS race to intervene and find themselves heavily outnumbered. Despite the overwhelming odds against them, the six men stand their ground, determined to prevent further loss of life.
