Young Woman and the Sea (2024, D: Rønning) S: Daisy Ridley



21 miles and a nice day for a swim. Experience the incredible true story of #YoungWomanAndTheSea, in select theaters May 31.

Disney’s “Young Woman and the Sea,” the extraordinary true story of Trudy Ederle, the first woman to successfully swim the English Channel, is coming to theaters nationwide in a special engagement May 31, 2024.

Daisy Ridley stars as the accomplished swimmer who was born to immigrant parents in New York City in 1905. Through the steadfast support of her older sister and supportive trainers, she overcame adversity and the animosity of a patriarchal society to rise through the ranks of the Olympic swimming team and complete the staggering achievement – a 21-mile trek from France to England. “Young Woman and the Sea,” which also stars Tilda Cobham-Hervey, Stephen Graham, Kim Bodnia, Christopher Eccleston, and Glenn Fleshler, is directed by Joachim Rønning and written by Jeff Nathanson, based on the book “Young Woman and the Sea: How Trudy Ederle Conquered the English Channel and Inspired the World” by Glenn Stout. The producers are Jerry Bruckheimer, Chad Oman, and Jeff Nathanson, with John G. Scotti, Daisy Ridley, and Joachim Rønning serving as executive producers.

“Young Woman and the Sea” will open in select theaters May 31, 2024.
This was originally going to go straight to Disney+ but was changed to theatrical.

This is now up on Disney+. It was pretty good. I don’t know why if Disney decided to give it a theatrical run they didn’t make it a wide release.

I saw it and not a huge Disney fan but this was entertaining.

Nice to see Stephen Graham and the score was pretty good.

I never knew or heard about this story and it never came up in history or any classes and don't remember it being discussed ever on TV.
