Warner Bros. Pictures has
just released the first Sully trailer, offering a look at the upcoming biopic of Captain
“Sully” Sullenberger starring Academy Award winner Tom Hanks (Bridge of Spies, Captain Phillips) in the title role. Directed by
fellow Academy Award winner Clint Eastwood (American Sniper, Million Dollar Baby), the Sully movie hits the big screen September 9. Watch the Sully trailer in the player below.
On January 15, 2009, the world witnessed the “Miracle on the Hudson” when Captain Sully glided his
disabled plane onto the frigid waters of the Hudson River, saving the lives of
all 155 aboard. However, even as Sully was being heralded by the public and the
media for his unprecedented feat of aviation skill, an investigation was
unfolding that threatened to destroy his reputation and his career.
Sully also stars Aaron Eckhart (Olympus Has Fallen, The Dark Knight) as Sully’s co-pilot, Jeff Skiles, and Oscar
nominee Laura Linney (The Savages, Kinsey) as Sully’s wife, Lorraine Sullenberger.
Eastwood is directing the film from a screenplay
by Todd Komarnicki, based on the book Highest Duty: My Search for What Really Matters, by
Sullenberger and Jeffrey Zaslow. The project, A Malpaso, Flashlight Films,
Kennedy/Marshall Company production, is being produced by Eastwood, Frank
Marshall, Allyn Stewart and Tim Moore, with Kipp Nelson serving as executive
producer.
The film reunites Eastwood with several of his
longtime collaborators, who most recently worked with the director on the
worldwide hit American Sniper: director of photography Tom Stern and production designer James
J. Murakami, who were both Oscar-nominated for their work on The Changeling; costume designer Deborah Hopper; and editor
Blu Murray.
