JOSEPH FIENNES TO LEAD
'THE LAST RACE' CHARIOTS OF FIRE FOLLOW UP MOVIE
As 'Deadline' reports Joseph Fiennes will lead the cast in CHARIOTS OF FIRE follow up movie THE LAST RACE which will follow Scottish runner Eric Liddell after his win at the 1924 Paris Olympics, looking at his life in China, where he worked as a missionary and died in 1945 in a Japanese internment camp.
He was originally born in China in 1902 to Christian missionaries.
His faith was of profound importance to him. He won gold in the 400m
race in the 1924 Olympics but refused to take part in the 100m as it
took place on the Sabbath. After returning to China, he was eventually
sent to a Japanese internment camp in 1943 following Japan’s invasion of
China six years earlier. He would die there of a brain tumour.
