Dream Horse tells the story of a jumper, bred by a barmaid and her friends and coworkers
The trailer for the upcoming racehorse movie "Dream Horse," starring Toni Collette and Damian Lewis, has been released.
The picture, which had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival Jan. 24 after filming in Wales, tells the underdog story of a barmaid, Jan Vokes (Collette), who recruits neighbors and co-workers into a scheme to contribute to a community fund and breed a racehorse. After a rocky start, Dream Alliance—the horse and the syndicate—is born.
Lewis, star of "Billions" and "Homeland" on Showtime, plays Howard Davies, a former racehorse syndicate leader.
The movie is set for a U.S. release May 1, the day before the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve (G1).
