Popcorn Culture - Supercut: American Presidents Onscreen

What do Harrison Ford, Bill Pullman, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Jamie Foxx have in common? They’ve all stepped into the (fictional) shoes of the United States’ commander-in-chief. With all the recent suspense of the US elections, and Joe Biden now declared the next president, we look at the various avatars American presidents have taken on screen - and why some of these roles have become so indelible in pop culture.
