First trailer for Breakthrough starring Chrissy Metz, Josh Lucas, Topher Grace and Mike Colter

December 6, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

The first trailer and images have arrived online for the upcoming drama Breakthrough. Based on Joyce Smith’s book The Impossible: The Miraculous Story of a Mother’s Faith and Her Child’s Resurrection, the film is directed by Roxann Dawson and stars Chrissy Metz, Josh Lucas, Topher Grace, Mike Colter, Marcel Ruiz, Sam Trammell, and Dennis Haysbert; check them out here…

BREAKTHROUGH is based on the inspirational true story of one mother’s unfaltering love in the face of impossible odds. When Joyce Smith’s adopted son John falls through an icy Missouri lake, all hope seems lost. But as John lies lifeless, Joyce refuses to give up. Her steadfast belief inspires those around her to continue to pray for John’s recovery, even in the face of every case history and scientific prediction. From producer DeVon Franklin (MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN) and adapted for the screen by Grant Nieporte (SEVEN POUNDS) from Joyce Smith’s own book, BREAKTHROUGH is an enthralling reminder that faith and love can create a mountain of hope, and sometimes even a miracle.

Breakthrough is set for release in 2019.
