Arthur the King’s Real-Life Adventure Racer Mikael Lindnord Explains True Story vs. Movie

Starring Mark Wahlberg, Arthur The King tells the story of a professional adventure racer named Michael Light who meets a stray dog named Arthur while on a 10-day quest to win the world championship in the Dominican Republic before he retires. But it’s not just a Hollywood tale: there is a real life Michael — Mikael, actually — and Arthur, and their journey together, where it counts most, is real.

Listen in as we chat with Mikael Lindnord, who told us what parts of the film are most true to life and which are movie magic, and how his journey with Arthur changed his perspective on what it means to win.

Arthur the King is now available via premium video on demand and will come out on Blu-ray, DVD, and digital on May 28 from Lionsgate.
