David Strathairn Joins Marshall
David Strathairn is set to join Matthew McConaughey and Matthew Fox in McG’s as-yet-untitled Marshall University football project.
The story revolves around the events following the 1970 plane crash that killed members of the West Virginia-based Marshall football team, along with most of its coaching staff, sports commentators and many of its local boosters. Strathairn will play Marshall University president Dedmon, who is profoundly affected by the loss of the team.
The Warner Bros. project is scheduled to shoot in March in West Virginia.
Strathairn is currently up for an Oscar for his portrayal of Edward R. Murrow in George Clooney’s Good Night, And Good Luck.
