Trailer: 'Invictus' finally shows its face


FINALLY!  One of the most unknown Fall movies (potential Oscar winner?) has finally released a trailer.  Clint Eastwood's Invictus trailer hit the web on Apple.com, and shows Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon playing South Africans.  Damon plays captain of the national Rugby team and Freeman plays someone he was born to play; Nelson Mandela.

The story is set after the end of apartheid and at the beginning of Mandela's presidency.  This uplifting story with added sports drama should give us a great insight into how that day felt to all of South Africa when the natioal rubgy team won the World Cup.  Seems that Morgan Freeman doesn't exactly need any help looking the part of Mandela... but I hear Damon's Afrikaans accent is coming along good!  

Here is the trailer
