Translated with AI from the Russian original.

Peter Berg believes the series is not limited to simple shootouts.

Director Peter Berg stated that his film based on the Call of Duty series, centered on Modern Warfare, will not resemble a superhero action movie. According to him, the story will focus on the cost of war, the weight of military duty, and the psychological burden carried by people forced to confront mortal danger.

According to Berg, Captain Price, Ghost, Soap, or Alex are complex and multifaceted characters.

If you look closely at the missions, storylines, and characters, it becomes clear that these are complex people. Without any disrespect, they are not cartoon characters or comic book heroes.

In Berg’s view, the Modern Warfare universe has a real soul, and its content is not limited to shootouts, military hardware, and killings. The game creators explore more serious themes related to the consequences of armed conflicts and the responsibility of those who take on the role of protectors.

The director emphasized that the film will pay attention to the price paid by people who, for one reason or another, decide to stand between mortal danger and the rest of the world, as well as the burden they are forced to carry.
