Jack O'Connell, Unbroken

Trailer Time: Unbroken Trailer #1 (2014)


Universal Pictures has released the trailer for director Angelina Jolie’s Unbroken. The December 25 release is an epic drama that follows the incredible life of Olympian and war hero Louis “Louie” Zamperini (Jack O’Connell) who, along with two other crewmen, survived in a raft for 47 days after a near-fatal plane crash in WWII only to be caught by the Japanese Navy and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp.

Adapted from Laura Hillenbrand’s enormously popular book, Unbroken brings to the big screen Zamperini’s unbelievable and inspiring true story about the resilient power of the human spirit.

Starring alongside O’Connell are Domhnall Gleeson and Finn Wittrock as Phil and Mac�the airmen with whom Zamperini endured perilous weeks adrift in the open Pacific�Garrett Hedlund and John Magaro as fellow POWs who find an unexpected camaraderie during their internment, Alex Russell as Zamperini’s brother, Pete, and in his English-language feature debut, Japanese actor Miyavi as the brutal camp guard known only to the men as “The Bird.”

Zamperini passed away at the age of 97 last week.

One thought on “Trailer Time: Unbroken Trailer #1 (2014)”

  1. This just looks incredible and the story is one of the most unbelievable stories of a life…..if you haven’t read Laura Hillenbrand’s book, go get it right now. I’m sad Zamperini passed before this came out, but he lived 97 years and he lived the hell out of them. True hero.
