Heroes In Film
Heroes are everywhere on Sky this month, from sports to real lives. But there are some heroes that, thanks to special effects and stuntmen, look a little bit more heroic than others...
It's much easier to put a hero poster on your wall when they're surrounded by a designed set, some special effects and caked in make up.
So, while you can enjoy the heroics of Torres, Rooney, Ronaldo and Walcott over on Sport, or witness true heroism over on Sky Real Lives, here on Sky Movies we're highlighting the actions of mssrs Hanks, Russell, McQueen and Hackman, among others, as part of the Heroes Season on Sky.
