The film will explore Madden’s extraordinary journey—from his time as head coach of the Oakland Raiders to his transformation into a legendary commentator and the face of the Madden NFL video game franchise.
Set in the dynamic 1970s, the film will showcase Madden’s rise to fame, his impactful relationship with Raiders owner Al Davis, and the influence he had on football culture. David O. Russell, known for American Hustle and Silver Linings Playbook, leads a powerhouse production team including Todd Black, Jason Blumenthal, Steve Tisch, and more.
