I couldn’t get it out of my head.”ĭale read about Marsh, Steed and MacKenzie and how hard they worked to become a tier 1 firefighting crew. So, I’m in the subway and New York Times had a two-page article on these guys.
“The week of the Yarnell Hill Fire, I was riding the 6 Train downtown. I couldn’t be further from here,” says Dale, who, along with several other cast members, was in town for a red carpet premiere at Tempe Marketplace. And with such a large cast, each actor was affected by the story in a different way. Only the Brave, which will be distributed by Columbia Pictures on October 20, aims to honor the firefighters and the sacrifices they made for their families and community.ĭirected by Joseph Kosinski and supported by an A-list cast, the film stars Josh Brolin as Eric Marsh, Miles Teller as Brendan McDonough, Jeff Bridges as Duane Steinbrink and James Badge Dale as Jesse Steed, with Taylor Kitsch as Chris MacKenzie and Jennifer Connelly as Amanda Marsh. Now four years later, the story of the brave men who made up the special skills team that tackled the massive wildfire is being told in one of the most immortalizing ways possible–film. The tragedy was the greatest loss of firefighters’ lives in the United States since the September 11, 2001, attacks.
When the Yarnell Hill Fire resulted in the deaths of 19 of the Prescott Fire Department’s Granite Mountain Hotshots in 2013, millions across the country were stunned.
