MUMBAI:
Directed by critically acclaimed Director Justin Lin ("Better
Luck Tomorrow"), comes this exhilarating comeback story of
a courageous young sailor who discovers that some opportunities
in life are worth fighting for. Filled with intense action, Annapolis
is an inspirational tale of courage and honor that will keep you
riveted. Starring James Franco, Jordana Brewster and Tyrese Gibson,
this Friday night at 9 p.m. Star Movies presents the exclusive premier
of 'Annapolis'.
When
he won a coveted admission spot to the Naval Academy at Annapolis,
local kid Jake Huard (James Franco) thought all his dreams had come
true - but his battle to become the man he wants to be is only just
the beginning.
 Now,
uncertain if a regular kid from a poor blue collar family can fit
into the Academy's pressure-cooker atmosphere, and barely making
the grade as a Freshman "plebe," Jake has one last shot
at proving he has what it takes to become an officer in an institution
that boasts a venerable 137-year history of focused discipline and
determined excellence. With nothing left to lose, Jake decides to
enter the notoriously fierce Navy boxing competition known as the
Brigade Championships -- and face off against his arch-nemesis,
Midshipman Lt. Cole (Tyrese Gibson). Everything Jake has ever hoped
for stands in the balance: the chance to make his father proud,
to validate his Lieutenant's faith in him, to stand up for his fellow
plebes, and most of all, to forge a different future.
Thrilling
and exhilarating, 'Annapolis' reaffirms the power of believing in
your dreams. Make sure you tune-in to exclusive premiere of 'Annapolis'
this Friday night, 13 July at 9 p.m. only on Star Movies.
