I love a good sports movie- especially those that are based on real people and real teams. Even though we’ll have to wait until Thanksgiving 2026 to see the new John Madden movie starring Nicolas Cage, I think it’ll be worth the wait!
The new movie will be based on the NFL coach’s life and career.
Christian Bale will star alongside Cage as late Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis in the movie. However, the role almost went to Tom Hanks. Hanks was set to play Al Davis but after several delays, he dropped out from the project due to scheduling conflicts and was replaced by Bale.
The teaser trailer has been released…
