The biopic movie about legendary Olympic athlete Jesse Owens has released its first poster by Focus Features.
There's also a first trailer released at the Focus Features YouTube page.
Starring Stephan James as Owens, along with Jason Sudeikis, Jeremy Irons, William Hurt and Carice van Houten - playing German filmmaker who documented the historical event, Leni Riefenstahl.
This looks like a very interesting story set just before World War II, with Sudeikis playing a dramatic role for a change and is one of the main cast. This will definitely show his acting chops, or there lack of; coming from a Saturday Night Live background.
Race will be out on 19 February 2016 - why is that so though? This looks like a movie that should be out in awards season...
