Imagine three young men who were lifelong friends planning a long-overdue trip to Europe and ending up as heroes in the midst of a terrorist attack! This is the foundation of the film “The 15:17 to Paris” and I was privileged to sit down with the actual heroes, Air Force Airman First Class Spencer Stone, Oregon National Guardsman Alek Skarlatos, and Anthony Sadler who were involved in the August 2015 attack and are starring as themselves in the film.
Listen in as the very humble and personable trio shares with me the amazing details surrounding their lifelong friendship, their role as heroes and their overwhelming excitement of getting to work with Director Clint Eastwood who adapted the screenplay by Dorothy Blyskal which was based on the book by the trio along with Jeffery Stern. The Warner Brothers film is now playing in theaters.
