The Paris Train Heroes Are Playing Themselves in Clint Eastwood’s New Movie

Watch the trailer to 'The 15:17 to Paris'

December 13, 2017 9:00 am

Clint Eastwood’s next film, The 15:17 to Paris, is a retelling of the thwarted terrorist attack on a train in France in 2015.

The twist? The real-life heroes — Anthony Sadler, Oregon National Guardsman Alek Skarlatos and U.S. Air Force Airman First Class Spencer Stone — will play themselves. The rest of the film is filled out by a veteran cast, including Jenna Fischer, Judy Greer, Ray Corasani, PJ Byrne, Tony Hale, and Thomas Lennon.

That said, it appears a lot of the film will follow the trio of friends growing up and in training.

The first trailer is below. The movie will hit theaters on February 9th.
