  • Steve Carell as Etienne Gerard

In the chaotic aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars, a French officer of immense confidence and questionable competence finds his world turned upside down. Steve Carell stars as Brigadier Gerard, a soldier whose unwavering belief in his own legend far exceeds his actual battlefield accomplishments. When he is unexpectedly tasked with escorting a mysterious and sharp-witted woman across a fractured Europe, Gerard seizes the opportunity to prove himself the hero he has always claimed to be. Directed by the acclaimed Jerzy Skolimowski, this historical comedy follows the pair on a perilous and absurd journey, where Gerard’s grandiose tales collide with the gritty realities of post-war intrigue. As they navigate a landscape filled with opportunistic rogues and hidden dangers, the brigadier must confront the possibility that true valor might require more than just a well-polished uniform and a boastful story. With a script from writers John Altschuler and Dave Krinsky, the film blends witty dialogue with slapstick misadventures, promising a hilarious ride through history with a man desperately chasing his own myth.
