Premise

Dutch-American football coach Thomas Rongen is tasked with turning the American Samoa national team, considered one of the weakest football teams in the world, into an elite squad.

Cast

Production

It was announced in August 2019 that Fox Searchlight Pictures had set up an initially unspecified project that would see Taika Waititi write and direct prior to his obligations to Thor: Love and Thunder.[1] It was later revealed as being a feature film adaptation of the documentary Next Goal Wins.[2] Waititi, Garrett Basch and Jonathan Cavendish serve as producers, with Andy Serkis, Will Tennant and Kathryn Dean as executive producers.[3]

In September, Michael Fassbender entered final negotiations to star in the film.[4] He would be confirmed the next month, alongside Elisabeth Moss entering negotiations to join.[5] In November 2019, it was announced Kaimana, Oscar Kightley, David Fane, Beulah Koale, Lehi Falepapalangi, Semu Filipo, Uli Latukefu, Rachel House, Rhys Darby, Angus Sampson, Chris Alosio and Sisa Grey had joined the cast of the film, with Moss being confirmed.[6][7][8] In December 2019, Armie Hammer joined the cast of the film.[9]

Principal photography began in November 2019 in Honolulu, Hawaii,[7][3][10] and wrapped by January 2020.[11] In December 2021, it was announced that Hammer was replaced by Will Arnett in reshoots, in part due to abuse allegations made against Hammer in January 2021. The part, initially meant as a cameo, was expanded upon when Arnett joined.[12]

Release

Waititi stated in an interview with El Español that the film will release in 2023.[13] In September 2022, the film was officially given a release date of April 21, 2023.[14]
