Robert Redford's Lions For Lambs will be released in North America on Friday, November 9, 2007, with the remainder of the world to view the release in subsequent months.

Principal photography began on January 29 with Robert Redford directing and starring alongside Meryl Streep, Tom Cruise, Derek Luke, Michael Pena, Andrew Garfield and Peter Berg.

Matthew Michael Carnahan wrote the original screenplay and produces alongside Redford, Tracy Falco and Andrew Hauptman.

"Robert Redford has a remarkable ability to tell moving stories and capture the essence of the human experience," says United Artists CEO Paula Wagner. "We are very proud to have him at the helm of our inaugural production."

“Lions For Lambs” tells the poignant and layered story of several individuals caught up at various ends of the nation's war on terror – a senator (Cruise) attempting to spin the latest 'comprehensive strategy' to a network news journalist (Streep), an idealistic professor (Redford) trying to convince one of his most promising students (Garfield) to change the course of his life; and two young men (Luke and Pena), fighting in the snow-capped mountains of Afghanistan, whose desire to live a life of meaning leads them to join the U.S. army and the fight against global terrorism.
