The movie will be directed by Peter Berg from the hit movie
Lone Survivor and
Deepwater Horizon. The movie was written by Matt Charman, who most recently worked on the Academy Award nominated movie
Bridge of Spies. Patriot’s Day is based on the account of Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis. Wahlberg, Scott Stuber, Hutch Parker, Dylan Clark, Stephen Levinson and Michael Radutzky are producing the movie.
According to Variety, J.K. Simmons will play Sergeant Jeffrey Pugliese of the Watertown Police Department. Four days after the 2013 bombing, the off-duty officer jumped fences and went through backyards to flank bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev. Mark Wahlberg will play a Boston Police Department officer who was central to the investigation and manhunt.
