42 joins the proud Hollywood legacy of films with numbers as their titles, like 10, 21, 54 and 300, to name but a few.
In this instance the 42 refers to the uniform number worn by baseball legend 'Jackie Robinson'.
Chadwick Boseman stars in this biopic of the history-making tale of how Jackie Robinson started his exceptional career and became the first African American to play for the Brooklyn Dodgers in April 1947.
His signing ended sixty years of racial segregation in the sport, under the guidance of team executive 'Branch Rickey' (Harrison Ford).
These suitably sporty creatives for the historical baseball movie were spotted lining the streets of L.A., including Sunset Boulevard, Melrose Avenue and Highland Avenue, from March 12 to March 22.
