The film reunites Goodwill Hunting filmmakers Affleck and Damon, and marks the duo’s first project under their Artists Equity production company, as well as Affleck’s first time directing his long-time friend. The Nike movie has also sparked early Oscar buzz and will likely be in the running for best picture and acting awards.

Starring Damon as former Nike executive Sonny Vaccaro and Affleck as Nike CEO Phil Knight, the film takes place in the mid-1980s and explores how the sportswear brand changed the game of athlete-brand partnerships.

It’s a hard sell that sees Vaccaro traveling from Nike’s home base of Oregon to the North Carolina in order to win over Jordan’s parents, Deloris and James (played by Davis and Julius Tennon) and the rookie player’s agent, David Falk (Chris Messina).
