Synopsis

An explosive action tale of betrayal and revenge, THE LOSERS centres around the members of an elite Special Forces unit sent to the Bolivian jungle on a search and destroy mission. But the team, which includes Clay Jensen, Roque, Pooch and Cougar, soon find that they have become the target of a deadly double cross, instigated from inside by a powerful enemy known only as Max.

Now presumed dead, the group makes plans to avenge themselves and clear their names, joined by the mysterious Aisha, a beautiful operative with her own agenda. Working together, they must remain deeply undercover while tracking the shadowy and heavily guarded Max—a ruthless man bent on embroiling the world in a new high-tech global war for his own benefit.

THE LOSERS stars Jeffery Dean Morgan (WATCHMEN) as Clay; Zoe Saldana (AVATAR, STAR TREK) as Aisha; Chris Evans (the FANTASTIC FOUR films) as Jensen; Idris Elba (OBSESSED) as Roque; Columbus Short (QUARANTINE) as Pooch; Oscar Jaeneda (CHE: PART TWO) as Cougar; and Jason Patric (MY SISTER'S KEEPER) as Max.

Directed by Sylvain White (STOMP THE YARD) with a screenplay by Peter Berg and James Vanderbilt, THE LOSERS is based upon characters appearing in magazines published by DC Comics / Vertigo Comics.
