Actor Gerard Butler and Director Donovan Marsh of the new submarine movie “Hunter Killer” visited Naval Submarine Base New London in Groton, Connecticut, to meet Navy submariners, tour the attack submarine USS Hartford, and share a special premiere of the movie with sailors on base.
The movie’s plot focuses on an operation aimed at averting war with Russia. Butler said it brings the submarine genre into the 21st century. “Hunter Killer” is a chance to take viewers into submarines and let them see the culture, “and really see how these people think, work, their courage, their intelligence, basically their brilliance,” the actor said.
