The second trailer for Tom Hanks’ next movie, based on Captain Richard Phillips’ memoir, A Captain’s Duty, (Hyperion; Tantor Audio; Thorndike) has debuted online. Phillips became a national hero in 2009 when Somali pirates hijacked his unarmed merchant marine ship and he courageously allowed himself to be taken hostage to save his crew.

Titled Captain Phillips, the movie is directed by Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Ultimatum, The Bourne Supremecy), and is coming to theaters on Oct 11.

For some reason, the tie-in is now showing as “cancelled.”
