The key part of the trailer for me was when his wife, instead of just passively supporting his dream, asks a very important question. What do the other applicants have that you don't. They show the montage if him becoming a pilot and doing dive training. That's where the dream that could never happen starts to become a goal to work towards. I'm looking forward to checking this movie out.

Exactly. And the easy answer would have been for him to say "white skin" and just succumb to a victim mentality because he'd never be able to have that. Instead he made himself so well-rounded and proved his dedication and never gave up. Historymakers almost always have to work harder than anyone in the establishment in order to make history, and I am dying to see this movie and see his journey where he does just that.

My wife and her entire family (parents and nine siblings) immigrated from Mexico. They were migrant farm workers throughout my wife's childhood. The parents understood that education is a major part of success in this nation; so, they pushed their kids to succeed academically. Consequently, all of them have graduated from college. Six of them have post-graduate degrees. They attended everything from major public universities to the most elite colleges and universities in the nation (including Stanford and Harvard). When I think of their story, I am inspired. This trailer gives me that same sort of vibe. I'm so looking forward to this film!

@@Native_Creation You're right! I've mentioned this to others in the past. When asked by Mexican soldiers why some of them fought at the Alamo (and afterward in the Texas War for Independence), some of them replied that they weren't Mexicans but "Tejanos." It's an interesting thought -- because Texas was a part of New Spain. It has had SIX FLAGS (thus "Six Flags" amusement parks) -- and many Hispanic Texans identify as such. I'm a descendent of someone who fought for the United States in the War of American Independence (i.e., "Revolutionary War"). I agree that there were many people -- including Hispanic Americans, First People, French and others -- who joined that cause. My wife's family are proud Americans. They are arguably more patriotic than most white Americans. They truly know and understand the cost of their citizenship in this "Land of Opportunity." They've worked harder than most. I love them dearly.

I don't think anyone in the U.S. can doubt the work ethic of the Mexicans that either immigrated here, legal or illegal, or are the first generation of a Mexican family that did. The best *French* bakery is my town is run by a Mexican family and they just had to move shops to a bigger place in order to keep up with the demand for their cakes/tarts/pastries/whatever, everything they make tastes far better than the run-of-the-mill shops, I'm there every Sunday for my cheat day. They appreciate every customer and I appreciate them in my town of ~50k people, their presence would be sorely missed (as it is with them moving shops right now lol). I would say, though, that being Mexican is the last characteristic that I would use to describe José or his family members. They are simply good people. José's oldest kid is in medical school right now in our state's capital, one of the best medical schools in the world (University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health). I look forward to seeing his family grow.

And of all those with that dream, and of all those who wanted it, only a select few actually became astronauts. And only a select few of those have actually gone to space. And only a select few of those have gone more than once. It's a very hard job, a very demanding job and requires thousands of hours of training as well as a masters degree in select studies.

Even though he played the main actor on this movie, as a person without performing he is a true heroe! Did anybody notice that even after 12 years of being turned down he was going to be back and said it with conviction?

He's a good dramatic actor but he's even better as a comedic actor which is probably a more difficult skill set. Peña is awesome and he elevates every movie he's in.

1:22 I actually had the pleasure to meet Jose Hernandez almost twenty years ago when he came to my youth organization to share his inspirational story. I didn’t remember much at the time but I definitely remembered him telling us how many times he applied! Thanks for inspiring us to never quit in our aspiration Mr. Hernandez! Michael Peña as an actor always crushing it!

Just watched this trailer and it took me on a trip down memory lane. After watching Interstellar years ago, I was so moved that I dreamt of becoming an astronaut and even wrote essays about the stars. Life, bills, and the reality of everyday struggles took that dream away for a while. But this trailer... it's reignited that old flame in me. I'm considering giving that dream another shot, even if it means re-evaluating the life I've carefully constructed. Anyone else feel this way? ❤🌌🚀

I have loved Michael Pena since Shooter as he plays the cop next to Mark Wahlberg and happily watched him for years and it really seems likes hes still barely hitting his prime. He has been so good for so long. I read the martian and listened to the audio book hundreds of times and his role in the movie is even better then the book character which is so hard to do. Congratulations Mr Pena you are a truly great actor and ive grown up watching your films!

I know the feeling the person who this story is based on felt. I am the oldest of 5 and we didn’t have much growing up. Food stamps, electricity getting cut off and moving at nite before getting evicted. I finished the 10th grade and ran away from home. I had wanted to be an astronaut as well since I was a kid but what chance did I have then? Not much. When I turned 17 I joined the Navy. I took advantage of training and schooling with the Navy paying. I did 10 years and got out. I continued learning and worked my way up in Naval Aviation over the years by taking harder and harder assignments. Did I make it to be an astronaut? No but I did eventually become a flight test engineer for the USN/USMC. I love the career I’ve had. I didn’t make it to the stars but I did get to see the curvature of the earth and the inky blackness just above my head. I could almost touch the stars then. That’s good enough for me, I’ve gone farther than I ever dreamt. I’ve done things I never thought possible. What a great career I’ve had. Retirement is in the cards the next year or two. Icing on the cake? I’ve got a wonderful family and grown children I’m so proud of. Life’s been good so far.

I've been a fan of Michael Peña since End Of Watch, which is in my top ten list of movies, and in my top five for movies released this century. I'm familiar with the concept of movie magic, but to shoot that masterpiece in just 22 days, I think it would have been a tall order for the cast to develop that kind of chemistry onscreen, so quickly, if they weren't cool and likeable people to begin with. Definitely checking this out. I think this message of persistence, but also, not simply demanding that someone give you a shot because you're special, but instead working hard at becoming the candidate they can't afford to turn away, is important. Especially in 2023.

Michael Peña is a fantastic actor. So much range. From slapstick comedy to killer to serious he has got it all. Does not have the recognition yet, but sure deserves a bit more exposure. Imagine, this the same guy that plays the storytelling Luis in the MCU.
