“A small piece is all it takes…” Angel Studios has revealed their full official trailer for the movie Hershey, a retelling of the origin story of the famous Hershey chocolate company located in Pennsylvania. This actual trailer is a major improvement over the original teaser, which was so bad it seemed like a fake movie. This trailer promises rich & engaging story, about a candy maker hitting his stride creating tasty milk chocolate right when everyone didn’t care much about eating chocolate. It began in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in as a candy shop in 1873, evolved into a caramel company in 1883, with Hershey Chocolate as its subsidiary. The very first Hershey’s Milk Chocolate bar was created in 1900. The film depicts this history of The Hershey Co, built by its founder Milton & his wife Kitty, and how their vision changed the world. I’m sure it did. A film by Mark Waters, the main cast features Finn Wittrock as Milton S. Hershey, Alexandra Daddario as Catherine “Kitty” Hershey, Alan Ruck, Richard Kind, David Costabile, Heléne Yorke. Obviously this is just one big marketing movie designed to make the story of Hershey look even more inspiring so they can sell more chocolate today, but at least this final footage doesn’t look that bad anymore. Have a piece below.
Here’s the main official trailer for Mark Waters’ Hershey origin story, direct from Angel’s YouTube:
“Just about everyone knows the Hershey name through chocolate, but what immediately drew me to Milton’s story were the obstacles & struggles he overcame to achieve his success. And then, unlike many wealthy men of his time (and ours), he chose to share that success with the working people and the community around him. That spirit, embodied by the love story between Milton & Catherine Hershey, is the core of our movie, and led to the creation of the still-thriving Milton Hershey School.” –Director Mark Waters
