Dennis Quaid & Penelope Ann Miller smiling during Reagan interview

Summary Reagan tells the story of Ronald Reagan's life from his childhood into his time as President of the United States. It also delves into the impact he had on history and the love story between himself and Nancy. However, perhaps most intriguingly, this isn't the traditional biopic. Instead, Reagan's life story is being told by Viktor Ivanov, a former KGB agent.

Screen Rant interviewed stars Dennis Quaid and Penelope Ann Miller about their new movie, Reagan. Quaid revealed what convinced him to take on the role of Ronald Reagan and how he wanted to portray not only the man but the era. Miller explained why reading Nancy Reagan's autobiography was instrumental to her preparation and the pressure she felt to honor her legacy especially because she is still alive.

"Reading Her Words, Her Experiences, Her Feelings" Helped Penelope Ann Miller Honor Nancy Reagan "I feel like I owe it to her legacy as a living, breathing human being who people knew." Penelope, I was just going to say, this isn't just a movie about President Reagan. This is also a love story about Ron and Nancy.

And playing opposite Dennis, who, as you mentioned true, he embodied Reagan so beautifully and perfectly and it was so fun to play opposite. We clicked, immediately clicked, and it was so important to the movie that is, in essence, the heart of the film is this love story. Penelope Ann Miller: It's funny people say growing up in the eighties was so much fun, and I hear that all the time. I think it does bring you back to that life then if you've lived in that time. And so I think it's fun to watch, to see all that and to go back there and learn, like you said, about who these people were and in essence, they were human beings, but what made them become these iconic figures.
