Sully is the nickname for pilot and accidental hero Chesley Sullenberger, who had to glide his plane along the water in the Hudson River, saving all of his 155 passengers.
Dubbed the “Miracle on the Hudson”, this film will be coming out almost 8 years to the date when he had to carry out the manoeuvre, yet hated the subsequent press intrusion into his life, and didn’t want to be thought of as a hero.
Directed by Clint Eastwood, from a script by Todd Komarnicki, based on the novel from Chesley Sullenberger, himself, the film Anna Gunn, Aaron Eckhart, Sam Huntington and Laura Linney.
And with Tom Hanks in the lead role, is he going for yet another Oscar? Hasn’t he got enough??
Sully is released in the UK on December 2nd.
