The storyline begins during the Cold War and follows Reagan’s small-town roots, to his time in Hollywood, to the prize of his presidency.
Alongside Quaid, Penelope Ann Miller plays Nancy Reagan. Mena Suvari, Jon Voight and others round out the cast of impressive actors.
Dennis Quaid talked about the challenges of playing this role.
“I’ve always been told bits and pieces of the stories of Ronald Reagan’s life, but this movie puts the whole story together,” Quaid said.
“I’ve played quite a few real people over the years, and I like to play them from their point of view, without judgment,” he continued.
“It was a big challenge for me to get behind the public persona of the man and also to move beyond my own feelings of admiration for him.”
