It?s a dramatic American true story ? about as dramatic as they come, really. But the tale of Jackie Robinson, the?first black man to play Major League Baseball, has only made it to the big screen one time, in 1950, with Robinson playing himself. That is, until this April, when?42 arrives in theaters with newcomer?Chadwick Boseman as Robinson and Harrison Ford as Branch Rickey, the Brooklyn Dodgers general manager who signed Robinson in 1945.
The new trailer for the film, written and directed by Brian Helgeland (Payback,?A Knight?s Tale),?makes clear Robinson?s road to the Dodgers? dugout was fraught with racist players, referees, even fellow teammates ? as well as the impossible pressures that accompany becoming a national role model.
