Trailer Bulletin: Gridiron Gang
by RT Staff | May 16, 2006
Discuss Article
You can see a sneek peek at the new movie "Gridiron Gang," featuring The Rock and Xzibit, over at Yahoo! Movies. It's about two coaches who decide to create a football team out of high school-age inmates to give them something to be proud of.

From director Phil Joanou comes "wrestler Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and rapper Xzibit in the real-life story of a counselor who organizes a football team made up of troubled youth at a juvenile detention center."

Mr. J's earlier films include "U2: Rattle and Hum," the seriously underrated "State of Grace," and the quietly awesome "Three O'Clock High."

Co-starring L. Scott Caldwell, Leon Rippy, and Kevin Dunn, "Gridiron Gang" hits theaters on September 15th.

Wow, looks better than i thought it would. Hopefully The Rock can show some real drama in this movie instead of the fake crap on the WWE. Regardless, i am thinking positive about the movie. Looks like it could be something.

Speaking of the Rock's acting abilities, I heard "Southland Tales" has been garnering some postive reviews from recent film festivals.
