A top-notch source has the trailer for Clint Eastwood’s “Richard Jewell” being released “imminently.” Probably alongside the WB’s “Joker.”
Directed by Eastwood himself, the film, starring Sam Rockwell, Kathy Bates, Jon Hamm and Olivia Wilde, is based on the true story of Richard Jewell, a security guard during the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games who discovered a bomb and tried to evacuate the grounds before it would detonate. However, as the police started investigating the drama they realized that Jewell could be a suspect and, in fact, responsible for entire the bomb hoax.
“Richard Jewell” is set for release on December 13th, 2019.
The film stars Guy Pearce as Rupert Murdoch and O’Connell as Larry Lamb, portraying the 1969 launch of the sensationalized The Sun and its lasting impact on journalism.
