Production
It was announced in February 2022 that Tom Brady, recently retired from his football career, would produce the film, to be directed and co-written by Kyle Marvin. Brady will also co-star as himself alongside Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno and Sally Field.[1] In March, Sara Gilbert, Glynn Turman, Bob Balaban, Ron Funches, Jimmy O. Yang, and Harry Hamlin were added to the cast.[2][3][4] That same month, Brady said he was not retiring from the NFL. Marvin said the announcement was "certainly news to us, so we had to adapt."[5]
Filming began by March 2022, with the production receiving a tax credit to film in California.[5][6]
