The new trailer for "42" presents Jackie Robinson like you've never seen him before. Our own AngelsWin.com historical write & author of "Once They Were Angels" Rob Goldman, plays the role of the first base coachin the film, hitting the theatres on April 13, 2013.
Written and directed by Brian Helgeland ("L.A. Confidential"), "42" tells the story of Jackie Robinson and his difficult journey to becoming the first African-American baseball player to reach the major leagues. Newcomer Chadwick Boseman stars as Robinson, and if the trailer is any indication, is a great choice. He's got Robinson's build and swagger, and looks like a ball player.
Harrison Ford stars as Branch Rickey, the Brooklyn Dodgers executive who signed Robinson.
"42" looks like it may be a big hit in the box office next Spring. Even President Barack Obama wanted to check out the set over the summer.
