The movie doesn't solely focus on football. It will also appeal to a universal audience and touches on topics like family and reuniting relationships.

In the interview, McKay mentioned the outline of the plot. He said: "So Wahlberg  has to put his ramshackle, convict, gambling-addict family back together again and beat the richies.”
