Clint Eastwood’s “Richard Jewell” will premiere at the 2019 AFI Fest in November, the American Film Institute announced on Tuesday.
“Richard Jewell,” previously titled “The Ballad of Richard Jewell,” is based on the story of a security guard who was falsely accused in the bombing that took place at Atlanta’s Centennial Park during the 1996 Summer Olympics. It will premiere on Nov. 20 at the historic Tcl Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.
Billy Ray wrote the screenplay based on the 1997 Vanity Fair article from Marie Brenner that describes how Jewell, originally hailed by the media as a hero for alerting police to the presence of a bomb and helping evacuate the area, was identified as a prime suspect in the bombing, completely upending his life in the process.
