TAMPA, Fla. — Tom Brady will play quarterback for the Patriots again, if only in a football-themed movie entitled 80 for Brady.
Brady will produce and appear as himself in the film with a star-studded cast that includes Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno and Sally Field, who play four friends/Patriots fans who take a life-changing trip to Super Bowl 51 to see their favorite quarterback. Comedy and chaos ensue as they navigate their way to the biggest sporting event in the country.
The movie, based on a true story, will be directed by Kyle Marvin and Brady will produce it via his 199 Productions. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Brady has been deeply involved with the film, developing the project with Donna Gigliotti and Endeavor Content. Michael Covino co-wrote the script with Marvin based on a script based on a draft by Emily Halpern and Sarah Haskins.
