The Senior

“True story, ultimate comeback.”

Mike Flynt (Michael Chiklis) spent forty years away from football, building a life as a husband and father, until the day he decides he wants to play college ball. At fifty-nine, he walks onto a small-town team, where his body and his marriage (to Eileen (Mary Stuart Masterson)) collide with the demands of a game he never finished. Rod Lurie tracks what it costs him to chase this unfinished dream, and what his wife has to give up to let him try.
