Behind the Scenes Trailer for George Clooney's Sports Drama THE BOYS IN THE BOAT
MGM Studios has released a behind the scenes trailer for George Clooney’s next film project, The Boys in the Boat. This is our first look at the film and the story that Clooney is looking to tell.
The film is sports drama based on the NY Times bestselling non-fiction novel written by Daniel James Brown. The movie is about “the 1936 University of Washington rowing team that competed for gold at the Summer Olympics in Berlin. This inspirational true story follows a group of underdogs at the height of the Great Depression as they are thrust into the spotlight and take on elite rivals from around the world.”
Clooney explained, "The stakes were much higher for them… and it gave them an edge. That you can pull yourself up from nothing and succeed."
I enjoy a good sports drama and underdog story, and this one looks like it’ll be a great film. The movie stars Joel Edgerton and Callum Turner, with Jack Mulhern, Sam Strike, Peter Guinness, Alec Newman, Luke Slattery, Thomas Elms, Tom Varey, and Bruce Herbelin-Earle.
Clooney directed the film and MGM will debut The Boys in the Boat in theaters on December 25th, 2023.
