INTRODUCTION TO PRESS RELEASE FEB 12, 2014 – BENGHAZI MOVIE OPTION DEAL
“Benghazi: The Definitive Report” is the definitive account of what took place in Benghazi, Libya, on the night of September 11, 2012, when two coordinated military attacks on the American consulate and a CIA annex claimed the lives of Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans, including two Navy SEALS.
The authors, Brandon Webb and Jack Murphy (who are both former Special Operations Forces veterans, authors, and investigative reporters focusing on military operations) drew their information on individuals who would talk to no one else, including fellow Special Operations team members and high-level connections in the Washington intelligence community.
This is an important story about the realities of modern warfare, both on the ground and in the hallways of power. The intricately convoluted tap dance in the latter defines the life-and-death reality of the former. A real-time video game, but with a twist: the players have several personalities, each with different objectives, and without knowledge of what the other is doing.
The result is a secret war within a secret war – one that the public knows very little about. The movie adaptation intends to tell the truth about the circumstances of what led to the Benghazi incident, via the lens of the special forces operatives whose camaraderie and loyalty outlives the system that fails them.

There’s been many false production starts, and inaccurate accounts told when it comes to Benghazi. SOFREP.com intends to leverage our trusted contacts within the government to make sure this movie is historically accurate, and authentic as possible. We plan to work closely with the families of the two former Navy SEAL/GRS (Global Response Staff) CIA contractors to ensure that the true heroes of Benghazi, and their families are honored appropriately.
