Channel 4 have started to show the 'coming soon' trailer for Catch 22, which is due to air in the Spring.
It'll star:
George Clooney as Scheisskopf
Hugh Laurie as Major de Coverley
Christopher Abbott as John Yossarian
Kyle Chandler as Colonel Cathcart
Daniel David Stewart as Milo
Austin Stowell as Nately
Rafi Gavron as Aarfy
Gerran Howell as Kid Sampson
Lewis Pullman as Major Major
Tessa Ferrer as Nurse Duckett
Jay Paulson as The Chaplain
“Catch 22 is the story of the incomparable, artful dodger, Yossarian (Christopher Abbott), a US Air Force bombardier in World War II who is furious because thousands of people he has never met are trying to kill him.
“But his real problem is not the enemy, but rather his own army which keeps increasing the number of missions the men must fly to complete their service.
“Yet if Yossarian makes any attempt to avoid his military assignments, he’ll be in violation of Catch-22, a hilariously sinister bureaucratic rule which specifies that a concern for one’s own safety in the face of dangers which are real and immediate is the process of a rational mind; a man is considered insane if he willingly continues to fly dangerous combat missions, but a request to be removed from duty is evidence of sanity and therefore makes him ineligible to be relieved from duty.”
