After a long wait, we are finally getting close to the official release of Army of Thieves, and here’s everything you need to know about the movie’s release schedule.

Interestingly, the forthcoming movie serves as a prequel to Zack Synder’s Army of the Dead that came out earlier this year. The movie follows the origin story of Ludwig Dieter (Matthias Schweighöfer) and how he found his interest in safecracking.

Besides Ludwig Dieter in the leading role, Army of Thieves will also introduce several new characters in the franchise. And fans who’ve watched Army of the Dead are eagerly waiting to find out what the prequel has to offer.


Storyline

A prequel, set before the events of Army of the Dead, which focuses on German safecracker Ludwig Dieter leading a group of aspiring thieves on a top secret heist during the early stages of the zombie apocalypse.

Army of Thieves’ Synopsis

The official synopsis of the Army of Thieves film states that it is set six years before the events of the Army of The Dead. While the entire world is distracted by zombies, Gwendoline (Nathalie Emmanuel) hires Ludwig to perform a near-impossible heist. At first, Ludwig is reluctant to join a band of criminals; however, for once in his life, he gets the chance to do the only thing is desires, which is cracking safes.

Netflix releases new episodes and movies at midnight PDT (Pacific Timing). So, if the streaming platform follows the same tradition, the release time for Army of Thieves would be 12 AM PDT.

Army of Thieves: A Quest

The film starts with Matthias Schweighöfer’s Sebastian Schlecht-Wöhnert recording a YouTube video professing what beholds the rest of the film: one of his absolute favourite stories. Sebastian talks about the Ring Cycle safes built by the great Hans Wagner and we get a hint how this story is not just about stealing a large sum of money but also, a quest that aims to make his life less ordinary. Soon enough, his obsession with the legendary Hans Wagner gets him recruited by an international, on-the-hunt jewellery thief Gwendoline for a heist that includes cracking three of Wagner’s safes from the Ring Cycle before they get destroyed.

As the film progresses, we see television visuals of the zombie outbreak which works for the central premise for the Army of Dead. However, this particular prequel only focuses on the heist more than the horror action. The characters are introduced in the typical way every Zack Synder character is introduced- with their name in an elaborate font flashing on the screen and a quick flashback from childhood, including the heist team that consists of brash drifter Rolph played by Guz Khan, smart alec hacker Korina played by Ruby O. Fee and the muscle man who seems like an alternate version of wolverine Brad Cage played by Stuart Martin alongside Sebastian and Gwendoline.

Army of Thieves: Final Thoughts

Army of Thieves belongs to the ones with a romantic heart looking for some fun-packed action and an emotional tragedy by the end. Overall, it is a film you can stream if you are in for some quick action, predictable cliches and goofy romance.
