How the Morgan Freeman movie timeline works

Morgan Freeman has played presidents, God and plenty of detectives, and every card here is one of his films, with its director shown underneath. You're arranging them by release year, starting from one film already on the timeline with its year revealed. Each new card goes into the gap you choose. Right placements show the year and stay; wrong ones still move to the true position but use up one of three lives.

Film stardom came late for him, after years of stage and TV work, so nearly all of this deck comes from after he was already famous. That stretch is full of thrillers, mentor figures, comic-book films, disaster movies and heist capers, often with sequels. Since he so often plays the calm, wise one, the role rarely tells you much; the director and the kind of film are better clues.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
