FUMA Alum Bryce Wagoner in 9/11 movie

One of our own alumni, actor Bryce Wagoner, will be appearing in the Discovery Channel's movie "The Flight That Fought Back" tonight at 9pm. The movie chronicles the events of September 11, 2001 as passengers on Flight 93 fought back against the hijackers who had taken over their airplane.

Wagoner plays the role of passenger Richard Guadagno and says he was helped in his portrayal by many conversations with Guadagno's sister, Lori Guadagno.

Of his role in this powerful and emotional movie, Wagoner says, "The intensity didn't hit us until that first 'Action.' Then it never stopped. You can't get away from the words people were saying and the gravity of the situation."

Read more about Wagoner and the movie in the Richmond Times-Dispatch.
