The cast of Black Hawk Down featured famous actors at both the beginning and peak of their careers. Black Hawk Down tells the story of Task Force Ranger on the disastrous 1993 mission that spiraled into the Battle of Mogadishu. During a raid against the Somali National Alliance, a Somali militia shot down two Black Hawk helicopters and left members of Task Force Ranger stranded in hostile territory. Ridley Scotts 2001 urban war movie boasted recognizable stars like Josh Hartnett, Ewan McGregor, and William Fichtner, but it also recruited actors little known in Hollywood at the time.
