Drone Pilot Ethan Hawke Is Questioning His Missions in 'Good Kill' Trailer
Movie

Hawke is questioning his missions as he flies a drone and blasts the enemy in the Andrew Niccol-directed war movie which also stars January Jones.

AceShowbiz - Ethan Hawke feels conflicted about his missions in "Good Kill" trailer. The actor who is currently enjoying the success of his film "Boyhood" plays a fighter pilot who turns into a drone pilot named Tom Egan in the war movie written and directed by Andrew Niccol. Egan, who controls the drone from a secure place in Las Vegas, begins questioning the ethics of his missions and admits that he feels like a coward.

Feeling frustrated, Egan directs his anger at his wife (played by January Jones) and alcohol as he comes home. "Is it so bad what you're doing now? You're still making people safer, right?" Jones asks him in the trailer. Egan's commanding officer says of drone warfare at one point, "Don't ask me if it's a just war. That's not up to us. To us, it's just war."

Niccol and Hawke are no strangers to working together. They previously collaborated for "Lord of War" and "Gattaca".

In addition to Hawke and the "Mad Men" actress, the movie stars Bruce Greenwood as Hawke's commanding officer, Zoe Kravitz and Jake Abel among others. The movie has not secured a U.S. release date.
