Story: |
Inspired by true events, Eddie the Eagle is a feel-good story about Michael
"Eddie" Edwards (Taron Egerton), an unlikely but courageous British ski-jumper
who never stopped believing in himself - even as an entire nation was counting
him out. With the help of a rebellious and charismatic coach (played by Hugh
Jackman), Eddie takes on the establishment and wins the hearts of sports fans
around the world by making an improbable and historic showing at the 1988
Calgary Winter Olympics.
