Eastwood Directs 'The 15:17 to Paris'

Reel Sum Up...

Three Americans face a terrorist attack on a train bound for Paris.


Produced and directed by Clint Eastwood, the upcoming biographical drama stars Spencer Stone, Anthony Sadler and Alek Skarlatos as themselves; based in the non fiction novel The 15:17 to Paris: The True Story of a Terrorist, a Train and Three American Heroes by the three men and Jeffrey E. Stern- about the events of August 2015, when Stone, Skarlatos, Sandler, a Briton and two Frenchmen stopped a gunman on a Paris- bound train travelling from Amsterdam via Brussels.

According to Eastwood, the film will begin during their childhood and show their friendship leading up to the moment that changed their lives.
The movie will be released by Warner Bros. Pictures on the 9th of February next year.

This isn’t a dig at Eastwood of all people, but shouldn’t actual actors be cast as the heroic three?
