John Madden’s incredible story is officially getting the Hollywood treatment. Madden stars Nicolas Cage as the legendary NFL coach and broadcaster, with Christian Bale stepping into the role of longtime Raiders owner Al Davis. The film explores Madden’s journey from coaching the Oakland Raiders to becoming one of football’s most recognizable voices and eventually helping create a video game franchise that would introduce generations of fans to the sport. His impact stretched far beyond the sidelines, changing the way football was coached, explained and even played at home. Now one of the most influential figures in football history is getting his story told on screen, with Nicolas Cage bringing Madden’s larger-than-life personality to a whole new generation. #maddenmovie
