Casting Revealed for Nickelodeon’s Paramount+ Film Fantasy Football

The cast for Nickelodeon’s new live-action movie Fantasy Football, which will debut exclusively on Paramount+ later this year, has been rounded out.

The film will feature an ensemble cast consisting of Marsai Martin, Omari Hardwick, Kelly Rowland and Rome Flynn. It will follow 16-year-old Callie A. Coleman and her ability to control her professional football player father through EA SPORTS Madden NFL. The actors are set to play Callie, Bobby, Keisha and Anderson, respectively.

“I am so excited to be working with such a talented and supportive group,” director Anton Cropper said. “Fantasy Football is a culmination of the adrenaline of the NFL and the fun of EA SPORTS Madden NFL, with the heart of a father-daughter relationship. As the father of a teenage daughter, I can’t wait to sit down and watch this with her. It’s everything a great film is supposed to be.”

A few other cast members were announced today as well, including Hanani Taylor as Kayla, Elijah Richardson as Nate, Tyla Harris as Zoey, Isac Ivan as Oliver, and Abigail Killmeier as Margot. They will be acting in a movie written by Emmy Award winners Dan Gurewitch and David Young, which itself is based on an original screenplay by Richard T. Jones, Jeremy Loethen and Tim Ogletree.

Fantasy Football will be produced by LeBron James’s The SpringHill Company, in partnership with Genius Entertainment, NFL Films and EA SPORTS. The film will be produced by Nickelodeon and will premiere as a Paramount+ exclusive later in 2022.
