“Valiant One” follows the crew of a U.S. military helicopter that crashes in North Korean territory at the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), according to Deadline. Amidst high tensions between North and South Korea, the survivors, all of whom are non-combat U.S. Army soldiers, must protect a civilian asset and get across the DMZ without additional support.
Condor will play Selby, an inexperienced combat medic specialist who enlisted after becoming a U.S. citizen to give back to her new country.
Eric Tipton wrote the screenplay based on an original idea by Steve Barnett, who will direct. Vicky L. Patel will serve as executive producer. A release date has not yet been announced.
