Guy Ritchie fans, your next cinematic fix awaits you in the form of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare<\/a> \u2013 and we finally have a UK release date for the new film.<\/p>\n

While the movie has already been released in US cinemas, it looks as though it\u2019s not set to get a cinematic release on this side of the pond, and will instead debut exclusively on Prime Video<\/a> here in the UK and Ireland.<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s not too long to wait until the release of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare<\/a>, as it\u2019s been confirmed it will drop on Prime Video on Thursday 25th July<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Not only is the film Ritchie\u2019s<\/a> latest venture, but the cast of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is positively star-studded, boasting the likes of Henry Cavill<\/a>, who leads the charge as No. 62 Commando unit Gus March-Phillipps \u2013 based on a real-life figure.<\/p>\n

The cast also includes Reacher<\/a>\u2018s Alan Ritchson, The Gentlemen<\/a>\u2018s Henry Golding, Ambulance\u2019s Eiza Gonz\u00e1lez, Magic Mike\u2019s Alex Pettyfer and Hero Fiennes Tiffin, who is known for his roles in the After<\/a> movies.<\/p>\n

Cary Elwes takes on the role of Winston Churchill, while Freddie Fox stars as James Bond author Ian Fleming \u2013 both roles that are, of course, based on real people.<\/p>\n

Described as an \u201caction-comedy\u201d, the film is set to tell the story of \u201cthe first ever special forces organisation formed during WWII by UK prime minister Winston Churchill and a small group of military officials, including author Ian Fleming\u201d.<\/p>

The official synopsis continues: \u201cThe top-secret combat unit, composed of a motley crew of rogues and mavericks, goes on a daring mission against the Nazis using entirely unconventional and utterly \u2018ungentlemanly\u2019 fighting techniques.<\/p>\n

\u201cUltimately, their audacious approach changed the course of the war and laid the foundation for the British SAS and modern Black Ops warfare.\u201d<\/p>\n

After riding high from the success of Netflix\u2019s The Gentlemen<\/a>, it\u2019s safe to say that fans of Ritchie\u2019s will be eagerly anticipating this new release, which promises laughs and plenty of spy action.<\/p>\n

Since premiering in the US a couple of months ago, the film has received lots of mixed reviews, but it does promise to be a fun new addition to Ritchie\u2019s already expansive filmography.<\/p>\n

Of course, there are plenty of similarities to be drawn between Cavill\u2019s role<\/a> in the new upcoming Ritchie film and James Bond, a franchise that he has long been rumoured to join.<\/p>\n
