The film details the inspiring exploits of Michael Edwards, better known as “Eddie the Eagle,” the most famous ski jumper in British history. The film’s portrayal of Edwards’ never-say-die approach to the sport, celebrates the human spirit and resilience in the face of extraordinary odds and challenges. Taron Egerton, who made his feature film starring debut in Kingsman: The Secret Service, portrays Eddie the Eagle, and Hugh Jackman plays a ski jumping expert from Lake Placid who helps Eddie train for the Calgary Olympics.
Hugh Jackman plays the mentor, ski expert named Chuck Berghorn, and Taron Egerton in the role of Briton ski-jumper, Eddie Edwards, who came last in his two ski-jumping events but ultimately achieved Olympic glory.
Co-starring Christopher Walken as Berghorn’s mentor.
Just like “Rocky”, Eddie became an example of an underdog with a bulldog spirit.
Produced by Matthew Vaughn and directed by Dexter Fletcher.
