Morgan Freeman to participate at Invictus Games at Disney World

The games, an international adaptive sporting event for wounded, ill and injured military servicemen and women, was founded by Prince Harry and hosted in London in 2014.

Over 500 competitors from 14 nations will participate in 10 events, including: archery, cycling, indoor rowing, power lifting, sitting volleyball, swimming, track and field, wheelchair basketball, wheelchair rugby and wheelchair tennis.

“The Invictus Games are a celebration of the human spirit and I am honored to be able to support these inspiring competitors who have embraced sport as part of their healing journey. I hope that my fellow Americans will join me in Orlando to cheer on these magnificent men and women who are truly unconquerable, as the Invictus poem says, they are the masters of their fates, they are the captains of their souls,” Academy Award winning actor Freeman said in a press release.

The opening ceremony will include musical performances by British singer Laura Wright and international star James Blunt. The Ceremony features military performances by the U.S. Army Herald Trumpets, U.S. Army Band, U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps and the U.S. Marine Corps Silent Drill Team.

The closing ceremony will feature musical performances by international popstar Rachel Platten, who will perform the song of the Games and her No. 1 single, “Fight Song.”
