“On a Wing and a Prayer is a gripping take on a very real survivor story and illuminates the remarkable power of the human spirit. Doug White is the definition of a hero,” says MGM Motion Picture Group Chairman Michael De Luca and President Pamela Abdy. “And [we] couldn’t have asked for a better star in Dennis to bring this unbelievable true story to life.”
The film's producer are Roma Downey and Autumn Bailey-Ford. And from the sounds of it, this movie will indeed be captivating!
“This gripping story has so many layers, I couldn’t put the script down,” says Roma Downey. “At the heart of this true story is a man thrown into every passenger’s worst nightmare as he sees his pilot die mid-air at the controls. What happens next will have you on the edge of your seat. And with Dennis Quaid in the lead role, you won’t be able to take your eyes off the screen.”
