WATCH: ‘Riverdale’ Star KJ Apa Plays Jeremy Camp in First Trailer for ‘I Still Believe’
On Thursday, the first trailer for the 2020 film I Still Believe premiered online. Directed by the Erwin Brothers—who directed the hit film I Can Only Imagine last year—the film focuses on the true story of Christian rock star Jeremy Camp.
Camp, an ordained minister and worship leader who attended an Assemblies of God college, married his first wife, Melissa, in 2000. She was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and died only four months later. (Camp later remarried.) His hit song “I Still Believe” was the first song he wrote after her death. Based on the trailer, I Still Believe will deal with their marriage, Melissa’s diagnosis and how it affected Camp’s faith and musical career.
The film stars K.J. Apa (Riverdale), Britt Robertson (Tomorrowland), Gary Sinise and Shania Twain, and releases March 20, 2020. Watch the first trailer here.
