Director Christopher Nolan has done the impossible: He managed to get Harry Styles to cut his hair. Oh, but that's not all! Nolan also was able to somehow find an audience based on the cross-section of One Direction fans and World War II history buffs. Impressive.
In Nolan's latest film, Dunkirk, Styles fans can see why the singer had stepped momentarily out of the music spotlight to focus on his burgeoning acting career. The two-minute trailer, which dropped on Wednesday, December 14, paints the picture of the "Dunkirk Evacuation," in which more than 300,000 Allied British, French, and Belgian soldiers were able to escape the German Army—a pivotal moment in World War II for the Allies. Harry Styles can be seen in an army uniform as he sits on a beach alongside his fellow soldiers. Later in the trailer, he's seen struggling under water.
The film, which also stars Tom Hardy, Kenneth Branagh, Cillian Murphy, and Mark Rylance, will be released on July 21, 2017. So, we'll see you at the theater this summer, 1D fans.
