The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial (2023)
Adapted from Herman Wouk's novel The Caine Mutiny, The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial follows a US naval first officer who’s standing trial for orchestrating a mutiny after his captain shows signs of becoming unhinged and jeopardises the lives of his crew.
Emmy winner Kiefer Sutherland (24) stars as the troubled Commander Queeg, alongside BAFTA nominee Jason Clarke (The Great Gatsby), Emmy nominees Jake Lacy (The White Lotus) and Lewis Pullman (Lessons in Chemistry), Teen Choice nominee Monica Raymund (Chicago Med), and Lance Reddick (John Wick).
The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial is written and directed by Oscar winner William Friedkin (The Exorcist, The French Connection) – one of his final projects before his death in 2023.
At the 2024 Critics' Choice Awards, The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial received nominations for Best Movie Made for Television and Best Actor in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television for Sutherland.
