American Airlines won't show 'Sully' movie on flights

Article content

American Airlines, who worked with Clint Eastwood on his new drama Sully, said the critically-acclaimed movie will not be available to passengers on in-flight entertainment.

The film stars Tom Hanks as Captain ‘Sully’ Sullenberger , who successfully landed the disabled US Airways Flight 1549 in the Hudson River in 2009, saving the lives of all of the 155 passengers and crew on board.

The airline worked with the filmmakers extensively on the project, but said it won’t be shown to future American Airlines passengers “because of the subject matter”.
