'American Underdog' Movie Trailer Based On Life Of Christian Kurt Warner - Movies

Watch the inspirational trailer for movie ‘American Underdog’ that’s based on the life of Kurt Warner — his story of faith will give you goosebumps!

This Christian NFL star fought for years to claim his spotlight. Just when it seemed like he was headed in the right direction, life knocked him down again and again. The trailer gives a glimpse into Kurt Warner’s struggle to become a professional football player, and it will pull at your heartstrings.

Zachary Levi, most known from the TV show ‘Chuck’ and voicing Flynn Rider in Disney’s Tangled, clearly does an incredible job portraying Kurt Warner. I’m sure his performance makes the actual Kurt Warner proud!

It starts with a devastating conversation with the coach of the St. Louis Rams. Coach Mike Mertz lists everything holding him back from putting Kurt on the team and asks him why he should give him a chance. It’s like a smack across the face! But you can tell it didn’t phase Kurt ONE BIT.

After that? A montage of different coaches and teams turning him down. Even when he ends up working in a grocery store, he knows it’s not where he’s meant to be. We know it too! You WILL be THE most successful undrafted player in the NFL!

Then, an inspirational montage. He says, “I know who I am. I know why I’m here.” The text in this part says, “Life made him an underdog. Faith made him a champion.” CHILLS.

The trailer does such a great job of getting me emotionally invested that I HAVE to see the film when it comes out. Stories like Kurt Warner’s show what’s possible when you live your life for God.

Fear you not; for I am with you: be not dismayed; for I am your God: I will strengthen you; yes, I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness. Isaiah 41:10
