The movie stars Brad Pitt as intelligence officer Max Vatan, who meets French Resistance fighter Marianne Beausejour (Marion Cotillard) while on a mission.
Paramount has scheduled Allied for a November 2016 release, just more than three months from now.
Apparently, Pitt and Cotillard spent time ironing out their characters with Zemeckis before production began, which made them feel “lived-in and real” according to King.
The Academy does have a soft spot for WWII, and Hollywood has no shortage of stories to tell.
