First trailer for 'Secretariat' rides to web

Randall Wallace's horse drama "Secretariat" will be riding to theaters Oct. 8, 2010, and a first trailer for the Walt Disney release has debuted online. Check it out after the jump. One thing you'll notice really quick is that this one boasts quite the solid cast, including Diane Lane, John Malkovich and James Cromwell.
Lane will slip into the role of Penny Chenery, an American racehorse owner whose thoroughbred Secretariat won the 1973 Tripe Crown. Chenery first stepped into the world of horses and racing when she took over her father’s horse farm in Virginia. She later became known as the “first lady of racing.”
Mike Rich ("The Nativity Story") wrote the script, and as you can see below, the film promises to be an entertaining horse race movie that will likely find an audience even though I doubt it will match the excellence of "Seabiscuit." Anyway, it's always good to see Diane Lane in great shape.

This looks like it'll be a really fun movie. Malkovich alone looks worth the price of admission.
