80 For Brady (2023, D: Marvin) S: Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno, Sally Field, Tom Brady
Tom Brady may have retired from football, but that doesn’t mean the seven-time Super Bowl champion is leaving it behind.
In his first post-retirement move, Brady is making a blitz into Hollywood and will produce and, yes, appear, in a football-themed road trip movie titled 80 for Brady.
Hollywood icons Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno and Sally Field will star in the feature project that is being made by Paramount Pictures and Endeavor Content.
Brady (the movie, not the player) will be directed by Kyle Marvin, who also co-wrote the script with Michael Covino. Marvin, who appears as an actor in the upcoming Apple limited series WeCrashed and co-wrote and starred in indie movie The Climb, is also executive producing with Covino, under the duo’s Watch This Ready banner, and Jeff Stott.
Inspired by a true story, Brady tells of four best friends and New England Patriots fans who take a life-changing trip to the 2017 Super Bowl LI to see their quarterback hero, Tom Brady, play and the chaos that ensues as they navigate the wilds of the biggest sporting event in the country. Tomlin, Fonda, Moreno and Field will play the quartet.
Brady, making a transition from football player to Hollywood player, was deeply involved with the inception of the project, developing it with Donna Gigliotti and Endeavor Content. He will produce through his production company, 199 Productions, along with Gigliotti, who counts Hidden Figures, Silver Linings Playbook and Shakespeare in Love among her credits. Endeavor Content is also producing.
Production is due to begin this spring. Marvin and Covino wrote the latest script based on a draft by Emily Halpern and Sarah Haskins, known for co-writing the coming-of-age movie Booksmart.
Paramount has found success over the years with comedies led by actress ensembles, with movies such as Book Club and The First Wives Club being breakouts.
Brady is repped by WME and Latham & Watkins. Tomlin is repped by WME while Fonda by CAA, Untitled Entertainment and Hirsch Wallerstein. Moreno is repped by Innovative Artists and John Ferguson while Field is represented by UTA, Anonymous Content and Hansen Jacobson. Marvin and Covino are repped by UTA and Jackoway Austen.

What a strange combination this is. Unless this is really good, it’s got bomb written all over it.
But this has straight to streaming written all over it.

Since Fonda and Tomlin already work for Netflix, wouldn't be surprised if that's where it lands except it's Paramount.

Nope. This could star Kyle Chandler, Danny McBride, Tom Cruise, Margot Robbie, Charlize Theron and Leonardo DiCaprio and I still wouldn't watch it.

This sounds like the target audience will be women? So older women who love Tom Brady. I wonder if that’s enough of an audience for this movie to succeed.
And if Brady’s acting is anything like his Ted cameos, it’s going to be a very tough watch.

Good to see older women getting a starring role in a movie and give credit to Paramount for doing this in the past as well. Don't expect much based on the plot however.

It had to drive him nuts that while he kept winning Super Bowls, Peyton Manning got all the good endorsement deals. But the reason is obvious : Peyton is a natural on camera, with great comic timing while Brady is just stiff and uncomfortable when delivering any line.

I don't expect Brady to do much "acting" in this. Sounds more like the Detroit Rock City movie where it's more about the quest.

Forget movie acting, he can't even deliver a line in a Subway commercial without being awkward.

That he is all of a sudden constantly on our tvs in the last couple of years is a pretty hard 180 from where he was. It almost certainly is related to getting his production company established. He agrees to be in the commercials as long as his company is involved in the production. This movie is just the next step.

I was hoping him coming out of retirement was going to see this film die. Oh well.

I bet they were hoping that Brady would still be relevant when this movie was released. Not a shell of his former self.
I like all the actresses involved in this but, seriously, fuck this movie.

Looks kinda sad. Reminds me of one of those "old man" comedies with some combination of Tommy Lee Jones, Robert DeNiro, Morgan Freeman, Alan Arkin, etc.

How could they make an old people comedy with 4 old women, but not include Diane Keaton? Is that even legal?

Looks bad.
If the women were played by Helen Mirren, Jane Seymour, Mary Steemburgen, and Christie Brinkley, I might be interested if it was rated NC-17 or XXX.
Otherwise, just more Hollywood silliness.
