Netflix has unveiled the cast for its upcoming movie about New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton, "Home Team."

Kevin James, best known for playing Doug Heffernan on the sitcom "The King of Queens," will star as Payton and will be joined by a cast that includes Taylor Lautner, Rob Schneider, and Tait Blum, according to Deadline's Amanda N'Duka. Adam Sandler's Happy Madison will produce the project alongside Hey Eddie Productions.

"Home Team" is based on Payton's experience coaching his 12-year-old son's football team following his NFL suspension for his role in the Saints' Bountygate scandal. Production is currently underway on the movie.
