Eliud Kipchoge, the Kenyan long-distance runner who is the world record holder for fastest marathon, will be the subject of a feature documentary directed by Jake Scott.
Kipchoge: The Last Milestone is being produced by Ross Plummer through the Ridley Scott Creative Group with Ridley Scott, Kevin Macdonald and Kai-Lu Hsiung serving as Executive Producers.
The film is in post-production. Dogwoof has boarded global sales and will be presenting the film at AFM.
The doc charts Kipchoge as he attempts to become the first person to run a marathon in sub two hours, a feat he achieved in Vienna in October 2019 (though not at an official event). It promises to be an intimate look into the man, including footage from his home in Kenya, interviews with those close to him, and chronicling the intense training that goes into his record attempt. The actual run was captured by 16 DoPs placed along the circuit in Vienna.
