Paramount Pictures has unveiled the trailer for September 5, its upcoming historical drama, which highlights the hostage crisis during the 1972 Munich Summer Olympics. The movie will hit theatres on November 29.
“Set during the 1972 Munich Summer Olympics, it follows an American Sports broadcasting team that quickly adapted from sports reporting to live coverage of the Israeli athletes taken hostage,” reads the synopsis. “Through this lens, September 5 provides a fresh perspective on the live broadcast seen globally by an estimated one billion people at the time. At the heart of the story is Geoff, a young and ambitious producer striving to prove himself to his boss, the legendary TV executive Roone Arledge. Together with German interpreter Marianne and his mentor Marvin Bade, Geoff unexpectedly takes the helm of the live coverage. As narratives shift, time ticks away, and conflicting rumors spread, with the hostages’ lives hanging in the balance, Geoff grapples with tough decisions while confronting his own moral compass.”
