Red Tails is an exciting and emotional action-packed film that tells the story of everyday heroes rising above extraordinary challenges. Inspired by the heroics and valor of the first all-African American aerial combat unit, the film follows the Tuskegee Airmen as they shatter all doubts and prejudices with excellence in the air and on the ground.
Executive Producer George Lucas dedicated over 23 years to Red Tails, patiently developing the script and seeking out a director who could bring his vision to life and deliver an adventure film of stirring heroics that have come to define the Lucasfilm moniker.
At its heart, Red Tails aspires to honor the bravery, excellence and heroism of the men that served as Tuskegee Airmen by introducing their story to all generations through a thrilling action adventure story.

Here’s the third trailer for Twentieth Century Fox’s the new air combat movie, Red Tails which tells the story of a group of African-Americans who are brought into the Us Air Force in World War Two after the military suffer losses which means they have no choice but to make this ‘unorthodox option’. George Lucas Executive Produces the movie and after watching this trailer, I can’t wait to see it!
Bryan Cranston, Cuba Gooding Jr., Terrence Howard, David Oyelowo, Kevin Phillips, Nate Parker, Daniela Ruah, Michael B. Jordan, Tristan Wilds, Cliff Smith, Rick Otto star in the movie helmed by Director Anthony Hemingway. It looks like it’s going to be a real tear-jerker and I’m very much looking forward to seeing it.

If you like your war dramas flashy and blunt, Red Tails looks to fit the bill. From executive producer George Lucas, the latest trailer for the Wii fighter pilot actioner is chock-full of cheesy one-liners and air battles that wouldn’t be out of place in a videogame. Expectations have certainly been reduced for Anthony Hemingway’s feature, but here is hoping things move fast enough to entertain.
Bryan Cranston, who seems to be appearing in every single major film nowadays, is shown off a bit more in the cast including Cuba Gooding Jr., Terrence Howard, David Oyelowo, Kevin Phillips, Nate Parker, Daniela Ruah, Michael B. Jordan, Tristan Wilds, Cliff Smith and Rick Otto. After trailer #1 and #2, one can see the latest below via Apple, as well as a new poster.

Method Man wants you to know he hasn't sold out.
Sure, he just got paid to do a rap about Sour Patch Kids candies, but he really doesn't think that makes him a sell-out -- at least not more than any of the other rappers out there these days.
"If I'm selling out, then the majority of the people in the game are selling out," the rapper, whose real name is Clifford Smith, told The Huffington Post. "I think it is for the betterment of the music. At least [Sour Patch Kids] got a real rapper to do a video. They got a rough rapper and they should get kudos for that and I should get kudos for broadening our horizons."
The Sour Patch Kids rap, "World Gone Sour (The Lost Kids)", is some of Method Man's finest work -- seriously! He really doesn't hold back on the cursing as he laments...

MTV have debuted a new high-action trailer and poster for Lucas Films’ Red Tails, the highly anticipated over two decades long passion project from producer George Lucas that unsurprisingly features some amazing aerial action sequences and visual effects but seems to fall down on character and dialogue. Lucas has been planning this movie since at least the late 7o’s (obviously the end sequence of Star Wars was shot his early version of a World War II combat assault) and is decades long realised, so the action had to be good.
The trailer also acts as a sort-of introduction to the Tuskegee Airmen and the trials and tribulations they faced throughout World War 2.

I really love the action we've seen in the first two trailers for the George Lucas-produced, Anthony Hemingway-directed WWII film Red Tails. In both the first trailer [1] and this new one, we see some spectacular dogfighting action. It's the sort of stuff that any student of Lucas knows has been the filmmaker's major preoccupation for decades. Seeing these encounters created as direct (if exaggerated) representations of World War II, rather than filtered through the lens of Star Wars, is pretty neat. As for the rest of the footage... well, the acting looks a bit on the uninspired side, doesn't it? I'm not sure that will even matter, because between the action and the 'against all odds' true story of the Tuskegee Airmen, Red Tails might have to really work overtime before it stalls out.

Quietly in development since 2005, we’re still waiting for George Lucas’ Red Tails. Ti ponders the fate of a potentially fascinating movie…
George Lucas isn't exactly short of money and clout when it comes to the movie business. So, why is it taking so long for him to release his latest cinematic venture, Red Tails?
The project has been long in development. In fact, it was announced way back in 2005. For those of you unfamiliar with the film, Red Tails focuses on the Tuskegee Airmen, African American WWII fighter pilots who faced enormous prejudice in order to fight for their country.
Named after the place where they were trained, the Tuskegee Airmen (formerly the 332nd Fighter Group) were known as the Red Tails, as they flew Mustangs with, well, red tails. Protecting bombers in raids over Italy and Germany, the 332nd were famous for not losing one bomber under their protection.
