Freeman and Damon

December 11 will see the launch of Invictus, Clint Eastwood's movie about the historic rugby final in Joburg back in 1995.

It's the true story of how Nelson Mandela (played by Morgan Freeman) strategically uses the world cup rugby final clash between the Springbokke and the All Blacks to unify the nation.

And on top of it all the Bokke won!!

There was this amazing, historic, unique, emotional moment where Mandela wearing captain Pienaar's number 6 jersey hands over the cup to Pienaar himself. And then the stadium rocks the nation.

Matt Damon plays Pienaar in the movie.

So from December 11 Invictus can be enjoyed in theaters across SA.
