Variety reports that Clint Eastwood’s Nelson Mandela film has gotten itself a new look and an official release date.

The film has now been christened Invictus (Latin for ‘invincible’) from its previous title The Human Factor. It is taken from the famed poem by William Ernest Henley that Mandela often recited. Also, mark your calendars: it’s getting a wide release on December 11, directly setting itself up for heavy Oscan consideration.

Based on John Carlin’s novel “Playing the Enemy”, the film stars Morgan Freeman as Mandela as he attempted to use the 1995 Rugby World Cup to help heal the wounds of his nation as he was released from prison.
