The Affleck directed film follows Nike's journey to court the then-unknown rookie Michael Jordan
takes us all the way back to a time when Nikes were merely an unknown second-string to Converse and Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player of all time, was little more than “a rookie who’s never set foot on an NBA court.”Damon plays Sonny Vaccaro, an executive of Nike’s then-beleaguered basketball division, tasked with raising the name of the brand.
dividends for all parties involved, but not before passing through skeptical marketing exec Rob Strasser , CEO Phil Knight and, most difficultly, Jordan’s mother Deloris .Affleck is stepping behind the camera to direct Damon for the first time ever, along with a truly stacked cast that also includes Chris Messina, Marlon Wayans, Chris Tucker, Matthew Maher, Gustaf Skarsgård, and Julius Tennon in addition to Bateman and Davis.
Just from this short trailer, it’s clear that this is one for all the sports-movie lovers, business-movie lovers, heartwarming-story lovers, and, last but certainly not least, corded phone enthusiasts out there in the world. It truly is the story of an era.
