Stephan James stars as Jesse Owens in this 2016 drama about the celebrated runner who grabbed and held the world stage by representing the U.S. at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin – the ones hosted by Adolf Hitler, whose theories of white supremacy were dashed by Owen’s dashing around the race track. Co-stars include Jason Sudeikis, Jeremy Irons, William Hurt, and, as Nazi propaganda filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl, Carice van Houten.
