The first image has arrived online from David Ayer's WW2 drama Fury , featuring Brad Pitt, Shia LaBeouf and the rest of the cast sitting atop a big old tank.

Set during the dying stages of the conflict, the film will see the Allies making their final push, with Brad Pitt's Sergeant (known as Wardaddy) leading an audacious mission behind enemy lines.

Heavily outnumbered and heavily outgunned, Pitt and co. find themselves right up against it as they attempt to score a critical blow against the Nazis in their lone Sherman tank.

Ayer unveiled the new image via his Twiiter account, with Logan Lerman, Michael Peña and Jon Bernthal making up the rest of Pitt's five-man crew.

Written and directed by Ayer and co-starring Scott Eastwood and Jonathan Bailey, Fury will open in the US on 14 November 2014, with a UK release date yet to be confirmed.
