Jamie Dornan and Cillian Murphy will reportedly begin filming World War II thriller Anthropoid on July 13th in Prague. 

The film tells the true story of the mission to kill SS head Reinhard Heydrich, known as “The Butcher of Prague”.

Two soldiers from Czechoslovakia’s army-in-exile (played by Jamie and Cillian) return to Prague to carry out the mission.

Metro Manila’s Sean Ellis co-wrote the script with Stanley Kubrick’s former assistant Anthony Frewin, and will also direct.

He told ScreenDaily.com that the story is “of great national pride” in the Czech Republic and that it is “time to tell the world that story.”

Anyone, fancy a trip to Prague in, say, July?
