Watch: Trailer drops for '80 for Brady' movie
The first trailer for the upcoming Tom Brady flick "80 for Brady" debuted Thursday, starring Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno, and Sally Field as the quarterback's biggest fans.
The movie centers around four friends who travel to Houston to cheer on Brady and the New England Patriots in their 2017 Super Bowl LI matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
Brady served as a producer and will appear in the film alongside former Patriots teammates Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman, and Danny Amendola. Brady told Variety's Ramin Setoodeh in July that he "learned a lot" while filming.
"It's really interesting. I find it challenging - sometimes hard," Brady said of playing a version of himself. "Because you're always paying attention to yourself as yourself rather than the character you're playing. I don't think that's natural for me.
"What I've done for 23 years in sports is play myself. There's no acting. It's me on the field. When I'm pissed, I'm pissed. When I'm happy, I'm happy. I'm not playing a role. So when I got to go play a role, I have no programming for that. There's not a lot of experiences to fall back on other than a few commercials that I've done."
"80 for Brady" hits theaters Feb. 3, 2023.
