Trailer and poster of ’42’, biopic of baseball player Jackie Robinson

The trailer and the poster of ’42’, one of those movies that Americans like because it touches on very patriotic themes, American legends and moments when their nation became great and stuff. In this case it is the story of the baseball player Jackie Robinson.

Chadwick Boseman He plays this player, important for being the first black athlete signed to the big leagues. And the one who made it possible for Robinson to sign for the Brooklyn Dodgers was the executive Branch Rickey, played by a Harrison Ford quite old

To understand this inconsistency between what we see and the music that accompanies the trailer, we must remember that it is Brian Helgeland who signs the film, director of ‘A Knight’s Tale’, one of the most anachronistic films in the history of cinema. By the way, ’42’ is Helgeland’s first film since 2003, when he directed ‘Sin-Eater’.

Christopher Meloni, Ryan Merriman, Brad Beyer, Judy Tylor, Jon Bernthal, Nicole Beharie and TR Knight complete the cast of a film that will hit US theaters on April 12 of next year.
