Hollywood megastar and snake-punching virtuoso Samuel L. Jackson is going to be President of the United States.
At least he will be in director Jalmari Helander‘s English-language debut film, Big Game. This is a description of the upcoming movie, via the Hollywood Reporter (emphasis mine):
The movie is billed as an adrenaline-fuelled action-adventure and tells the story of a shy, nervous 13-year-old boy who, like his forefathers, takes a test of manhood by spending one day and night alone in the wilderness of a vast local forest.
Armed only with a bow and arrow, his task is to return with a prize to prove himself. But when Air Force One is shot down by terrorists, the young man discovers the U.S. president in an escape pod, and they have to team up as the terrorists close in.
This will be the most political and presidential thing Jackson has done since last September, when he starred in a pro-Obama web ad (funded by The Jewish Council for Education & Research, a liberal super-PAC) that demanded complacent Democratic voters “wake the fuck up” before the 2012 election.
