Earning an “A” CinemaScore, and a 95% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, Harrelson (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, The People vs Larry Flynt), stars in the hilarious and heartwarming story of a former minor-league basketball coach who, after a series of missteps, is ordered by the court to manage a team of players with intellectual disabilities. He soon realizes that despite his doubts, together, this team can go further than they ever imagined. Harrelson stars alongside Cheech Marin (Cheech & Chong’s Next Movie, Nice Dreams), Ernie Hudson (Ghostbusters, Miss Congeniality), and Kaitlin Olson (Hacks, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia).
