Synopsis
SPY GAME is set in the global arena of secret intelligence where CIA operative Nathan Muir (Robert Redford) and his protege Tom Bishop (Brad Pitt) forge an unshakeable friendship in a profession fraught with danger and uncertainty. But now, years later, with the friendship turned sour, Muir faces his greatest challenge, when Bishop is captured and jailed in Beijing. On the brink of retirement, Muir risks everything on his most dangerous and personal mission ever.
Acclaimed director Tony Scott (ENEMY OF THE STATE, CRIMSON TIDE) reunites two of Hollywood's most successful talents, Robert Redford (BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID, UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL) and Brad Pitt (FIGHT CLUB, SNATCH, OCEANS 11), for the first time since 1992's collaboration on A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT, in the action thriller, SPY GAME.
