“From dusty small-town roots to the glitter of Hollywood, and then on to commanding the world stage, Reagan is a cinematic journey of overcoming the odds. Told through the voice of Viktor Petrovich, a former KGB agent whose life becomes inextricably linked with Ronald Reagan’s when Reagan first caught the Soviets’ attention as an actor in Hollywood, this film offers a perspective as unique as it is captivating. Dennis Quaid brings to life a story that transcends the boundaries of a traditional biopic, offering a profound exploration of the enduring impact of the power of one man who overcame the odds, sustained by the love of a woman who supported him in his journey.”
Directed by Sean McNamara (SOUL SURFER, MIRACLE SEASON), Reagan finds the Day After Tomorrow and Lawmen: Bass Reeves star in the lead as Ronald Reagan alongside Penelope Ann Miller as Nancy Reagan, Mena Suvari as Reagan’s first wife Jane Wyman, Lesley-Anne Down as Margaret Thatcher, David Henrie as teenage Reagan, Kevin Dillon as Jack Warner and Jon Voight as KGB agent Viktor Petrovich.
Dennis Quaid Calls Playing Reagan One of His ‘Most Interesting Roles’

For his part, Dennis Quaid has described the movie as “important” while calling portraying the former POTUS one of his “most interesting roles.”
