A football comedy backed by ABBA’s “Take a Chance on Me?” Sign me up now.
Taika Waititi’s latest endeavor, Next Goal Wins, is based on the true story of the American Samoa soccer team, known for their brutal 31-0 FIFA loss to Australia in 2001, and one coach who tried to see something in them when no one else would. A hilarious comedy about underdogs who try to beat the odds, Next Goal Wins stars Michael Fassbender, Elisabeth Moss, Oscar Kightley, Uli Latukefu, Rachel House, Kaimana, David Fane, Beulah Koale, Chris Alosio, Taika Waititi, Will Arnett, and Rhys Darby.
Next Goal Wins releases in theaters on November 17.
