From Warner Bros. Pictures and director Patricia Riggen (Girl in Progress) comes the true story film The 33, which captures the harrowing 2010 Chilean mine disaster. It stars Antonio Banderas, Juliette Binoche, Mario Casas, Lou Diamond Phillips, Rodrigo Santoro, Gabriel Byrne and James Brolin. The 33 is due for release November 13th.

When the San José copper and gold mine in Chile collapsed in 2010, 33 miners were trapped more than 200 stories underground. Temperatures in the mine reached 100 degrees Fahrenheit beneath a boulder twice the size of the Empire State building as they were trapped there for 69 days. The ordeal represented the longest underground survival in history. Based on a book by Hector Tobar, which is based on true events.
