Anchor Bay Entertainment Launches the All-Star Action Comedy OPERATION: ENDGAME on DVD and Blu-ray July 27th


Working for the U.S. Government can be murder!


Beverly Hills, CA – Somewhere in our nation’s capital, a group of men and women, once dedicated to keeping America safe from its enemies, have just declared war…on each other. From the producers of Donnie Darko and the Oscar®-winning Capote comes Operation: Endgame. An edgy action-comedy with one of the coolest all-star casts ever assembled, Operation: Endgame premieres on DVD and Blu-ray™ on July 27th from Anchor Bay Entertainment.

Released theatrically by Anchor Bay Films, the Infinity Media production stars Joe Anderson (The Crazies, Across The Universe), Rob Corddry (Hot Tub Time Machine), Ellen Barkin (Ocean’s 13), Odette Yustman (Cloverfield), Zach Galifianakis (The Hangover) and Emilie de Ravin (“Lost,” Remember Me) and SRP is $29.97 for the DVD, and $34.98 for the Blu-ray™. Pre-book is June 24th. In addtion, the film will have an exclusive Los Angeles theatrical engagement starting Friday, July 16th at the Laemmle's Sunset 5 Theaters.

Operation: Endgame centers around two rival teams of government assassins, who work out of a top-secret underground facility and use code names from the Tarot deck. When new hire “The Fool” (Anderson) joins the group, he arrives for his first day only to discover that the boss has been murdered and the office has been locked down and turned into a ticking time bomb. He must survive his ambitious co-workers, find the killer, and discover a way out before the whole place explodes.
