I found this film while I was looking for Richard Harris in Juggernaut. It's not out yet. Info from Wikipedia entry:
The Hurt Locker is an upcoming award winning 2009 American war film directed by Kathryn Bigelow. Filmed entirely on location in Jordan, the film is based on recently declassified information about a U.S. Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team in present day Iraq.
In Iraq, an elite U.S. Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) unit is forced to play a dangerous game of cat and mouse in the chaos of war in a city where everyone is a potential enemy and every object could be a deadly bomb.[16] Jeremy Renner plays the leader of the EOD team, as he contends with not only defusing bombs in the backdrop of a war but also the psychological and emotional strain that it inflicts.[17]
Freddie Jones' famous line from Juggernaut, fans will recall, is "cut the blue wire." He says this to Richard Harris, waits, and then says it again. But Harris smells a rat and cuts the red wire instead. It's the right choice. Whew.
