American Sniper First Photos: Bradley Cooper Stars in Clint Eastwood's Latest
by Joel D Amos at . Updated at . CommentsThe first photos for the latest film from award-winning director and American icon Clint Eastwood are here.
Bradley Cooper stars as the title character in American Sniper and the film is based on the bestselling memoir by former Navy SEAL Chris Kyle.
American Sniper lands in theaters December 25 (in limited release for an Oscar-qualifying run before opening wide January 16, 2015).
Kyle was considered one of the most accurate American snipers ever, and even earned the nickname “The Devil” by the enemies that he pursued over the years. He served from 1999 to 2009 where he recorded more enemy kills than any sniper that has ever lived.
When he was fighting in Iraq, he was so feared that the insurgents actually placed a reward on his capture or kill.
It was the attacks of 9/11 that forced him into the life that would define him. Eastwood tells his astonishing story and Cooper plays him, with Sienna Miller also starring.
