12 Mighty Orphans Podcast

12 MIGHTY ORPHANS – the new Sony Pictures Classics film tells the true story of the Mighty Mites, the football team of a Fort Worth orphanage who, during the Great Depression, went from playing without shoes—or even a football—to playing for the Texas state championships.

Luke Wilson, who stars as coach Rusty Russell, and Ty Roberts (Director), provide exclusive insights behind the film, its amazing true-story inspiration, and the film's unique relevance and appeal for these times, as people are ready to go back out to see the major stars in new films with uplifting themes on the big screens.

They also discuss working with legends, Martin Sheen and Robert Duval, co-star Vinessa Shaw, and the talented newcomers who play the orphan footballers.

Film opens in Texas markets June 11, nationwide on June 18. Click here for more details and tickets for screenings near you.
