*Ronald Reagan? The actor?*
Jared Harris and JK Simmons in the same movie will make this a must watch for me.
You will never convince me Reagan was a good president or a good human being.
Should’ve gotten Michael Showalter for Reagan
Will the goat make an appearance?
Any film that portrays Reagan as anything other than an incompetent, morally-bankrupt ghoul is a pure fantasy. Shit president, shit person.
Angel Studios which is distributing this and Runner starring Alan Ritchson seems to be straying from their Christian studio roots. If they rebrand it might help in their general audience perception in a few years.
If I had a nickle everytime Jeff Daniels played a Republican / Jared Harris played a Soviet…
I’d had two/four nickles, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice/quadrice
Spoiler Alert: We don’t end up having a nuclear war.
Is this the first time an American has played an historical American president in a movie or show? At least, first time in a long time lol
Jeff Daniels playing actor Ronald Reagan playing the President.
“dismantle nuclear arsenals or ignite disaster” Neither of those things happened. What?
Reagan was a terrible human being and the fact that Angel Studios os producing makes it clear this will be another propaganda fluff piece.
No, thank you
You had me at JK Simmons.
Hopefully they recreate the violent diarrhea scene from Dumb & Dumber with Daniels as Regan as a nod and wink to the audience.
