We chat with Champions Bobby Farrelly about the chemistry between Woody Harrelson and Kaitlin Olson, as well as exploring each player's backstory in the heartwarming new film:
Champions follows Marcus, a hot-headed minor league assistant basketball coach who is fired after confronting the head coach during a game. Humiliated by his firing and becoming a joke on television and social media, he crashes into a police car while drunk, resulting in court-ordered community service. Marcus' community service assignment is to coach a team of intellectually disabled basketball players at the local community center called The Friends.
Bobby Farrelly: Well, there was an original movie, we can't take full credit because it was an original Spanish movie, Campeons. And the arc of the story was all in that movie, and we really enjoyed it. What we wanted to do, of course, is make it an American story, and Woody was the perfect guy to play the basketball coach. So we just thought he knows basketball as well as anyone. He's the right guy, and we had so much fun.
There's a scene where I got a little misty-eyed when we finally learned why Darius has a problem with Marcus. It's a really powerful scene. What inspired that story point? And can you talk to me about what those two actors brought to the table on that day? 'Cause it was quite emotional.
