Roland Emmerich, who has directed films such as 2012, The Day After Tomorrow, and Independence Day 2, released the first poster for his new film Midway, and officially announced that it will be released in North America on November 8. The first trailer of the film is also expected to be released soon.

In the poster, two US Navy pilots boarded a fighter plane, with thick smoke rising behind them and rows of fighter planes passing in the sky. The intensity of the war can be seen. It is reported that the total investment of "Midway" exceeded 100 million US dollars, and Bona Film Group participated in the investment and acquired the distribution rights in China.

The film stars Woody Harrison, Mandy Moore, Luke Evans, Patrick Wilson, Ed Skrein, Aaron Eckhart, Keean Johnson, Tadanobu Asano, Dennis Quaid, Nick Jonas and others, with Zhao Ningyu serving as the Chinese production consultant.

The Battle of Midway was an important battle in World War II, between the United States Pacific Fleet and the Imperial Japanese Navy. The main battle of the naval battle broke out on June 4, 1942, in the waters northwest of Midway Island, and the subsequent fighting lasted until June 7.

The Battle of Midway was a turning point in the Pacific War. With the victory of this battle, the US military reversed its passive position since the beginning of the war and restored the balance of maritime power between the United States and Japan in the Western Pacific. The Japanese Navy lost its strategic dominance since the beginning of the war and subsequently fell into a war of attrition with the Allies in the Southwest Pacific, gradually declining in the war.

However, this is not the first film focusing on the Battle of Midway. "The Battle of Midway" starring Henry Fonda, Charlton Heston, Toshiro Mifune and other stars was released in 1976. The film's luxurious cast and realistic naval battle scenes received a lot of praise.
