From Universal Pictures Home Entertainment: Beirut

Golden Globe^® winner Jon Hamm ("Mad Men," Baby Driver) stars as Mason Skiles, a former U.S. diplomat, who gets sent to Beirut to negotiate a swap for the release of a terrorist leader, believed to be imprisoned by Israeli secret police, in exchange for a CIA agent who has been kidnapped.  Confronted by ghosts from his past, Mason faces a formidable question:  Who do you trust in a world where the truth emerges only when it's convenient – or profitable? 

Directed by Brad Anderson (The Machinist), produced and written by Tony Gilroy (The Bourne Franchise, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story), the critically acclaimed film also stars Academy Award^® nominee Rosamund Pike (Gone Girl) and Screen Actors Guild Award^® winner Dean Norris ("Breaking Bad").
