Shane Dax Taylor during Murder Company interview

Summary Murder Company follows a group of United States soldiers who are given orders to smuggle a member of the French resistance behind enemy lines during the midst of the D-Day invasion. The resistance member has plans to assassinate a high-value Nazi target, and the war movie centers on that very important mission.

Shane Dax Taylor Has Personal Ties To World War II When asked what drew him to Murder Company, director Shane Dax Taylor shares a Time Magazine cover from Normandy that features his grandfather. He has always wanted to do a war movie, but this one in particular felt like the perfect fit. The biggest challenge when filming Murder Company was the language barrier. There were times that it cost them many shooting hours they didn't think they could afford to lose.

We had two stunt coordinators, and there were certain things they wanted to do. I was like, "Can we do that? You want to jump off a truck, set on fire, do this?" And it's like, "Oh, yeah. We've done it before, and we can definitely do it." We're blowing people up into trees, people are tumbling down mountains. It was a lot. They definitely brought it and it made it that much more exciting and more real.

That was important to me, because I've been on sets where there's gonna be one toxic person, and then all of a sudden, it brings down the morale of everybody, but it was important to me to have everybody on the same page. I talked to him and I want you to hang out with these guys, especially because I came in early. And so we would know each other. It helped that I knew a couple of these guys really well. And dinners helped, and trading stories. It was important to me for sure.
