An exclusive clip from the upcoming World War II film Lucky Strike shows Scott Eastwood’s soldier cut off during the Battle of the Bulge—armed with a Motorola SCR-300 radio and forced to outsmart the advancing Nazi Panzer army. Lucky Strike arrives in theaters
In a new exclusive clip from the upcoming World War II film Lucky Strike, Scott Eastwood finds himself boxed in by history—trapped during the Battle of the Bulge, just as the last major German offensive during WWII surges forward.
Lucky Strike arrives in theaters on June 26, 2026. The movie comes from Roadside Attractions and Saban Films. and it centers on a single desperate mission: one soldier stranded behind enemy lines when the Nazi advance tightens. The film is inspired by true events. according to the official synopsis. and it narrows the focus to what happens when the wrong person is left alone in the middle of the wrong war.
He isn’t carrying a squad or a clear route home. Instead, he’s armed only with his Motorola SCR-300 radio—a battle-ready technology developed near the end of the war. With that lifeline, he has to rely on wits and spy craft to thwart the advancing Nazi Panzer army and find his way back home.
The clip also puts the film’s premise in sharp relief: this isn’t a broad battlefield story. It’s a solitary survival thriller built around signals, stealth, and the clock that keeps moving even when help doesn’t arrive.
Lucky Strike is directed by Rod Davis Lurie, who co-wrote the screenplay with Marc Frydman. The cast includes Scott Eastwood, Colin Hanks, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Taylor John Smith, Lorne MacFadyen, Daniel Ray Rodriguez, Atanas Srebrev, Alexandra Vale, Jake Lowe, and Caroline Piette, among others.
For Lurie and Eastwood, the project is their latest collaboration. The pair previously worked together on 2019’s war movie The Outpost.
Behind the camera, the film is produced by Marc Frydman, Yariv Lerner, Les Weldon, and Jonathan Yunger. Executive producers are Anders Erdén, Lati Grobman, Matthew Helderman, Julie Kroll, Avi Lerner, J.J. Nugent, Trevor Short, and Luke Taylor. The creative team includes cinematographer Lorenzo Senatore, editor Christal Khatib, composer Larry Groupé, production designer P. Erik Carlson, and costume designer Anna Gelinova.
Right now. the most compelling thing about Lucky Strike is also its most fragile promise: one radio. one soldier. and a narrow path through a moment in WWII that is already remembered for its chaos and speed. June 26. 2026 can’t come soon enough for viewers who want their war stories to feel personal—and dangerous—from the first frame.
