Official Trailer To Flag Day Directed By & Starring Sean Penn
MGM has released the official trailer for director Sean Penn’s upcoming drama film titled Flag Day, starring Penn and real-life daughter Dylan Penn. The film just recently had its world premiere at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival, and is currently slated to arrive in select theaters on August 20.
Jennifer Vogel’s father John was larger than life. As a child, Jennifer marveled at his magnetizing energy and ability to make life feel like a grand adventure. He taught her so much about love and joy, but he also happened to be the most notorious counterfeiter in US history. Based on a true story and directed by Sean Penn, Flag Day stars Penn and his real-life daughter Dylan Penn in an intimate family portrait about a young woman who struggles to rise above the wreckage of her past while reconciling the inescapable bond between a daughter and her father.
Joining the father-and-daughter duo are Josh Brolin, Norbert Leo Butz, Dale Dickey, Eddie Marsan, Bailey Noble, Hopper Jack Penn, and Katheryn Winnick as Jennifer’s mother Patty Vogel.
Based on Jennifer Vogel’s memoir Flim-Flam Man: The True Story of My Father’s Counterfeit Life, Flag Day is directed by Oscar-winning actor Sean Penn from a screenplay written by Tony Award winner Jez Butterworth & John-Henry Butterworth, and produced by Golden Globe winner William Horberg, Academy Award nominee Jon Kilik and Fernando Sulichin. Original songs are by Cat Power, Glen Hansard and Eddie Vedder.
