Nicolas Cage-Christian Bale film 'Madden' to stream Nov. 18

  • On Thursday, Amazon MGM Studios announced that the film Madden will begin streaming worldwide via Prime Video on Nov. 18, starring Nicolas Cage as legendary American football coach and sports commentator John Madden.
  • Director David O. Russell helmed the feature from a script he co-wrote with Cambron Clark, capturing Madden's career as Oakland Raiders Head Coach, his transition to broadcasting, and the rise of the Madden NFL video game.
  • Christian Bale co-stars as Raiders owner Al Davis, with Kathryn Hahn, Sienna Miller, John Mulaney, and Shane Gillis rounding out the cast; Escape Artists, Skydance Sports, and NFL Films produced the project.
  • While Amazon MGM made no official announcement about theatrical release, the film will likely receive a qualifying run to meet Academy Motion Picture Arts and Sciences rules requiring seven consecutive days in specific U.S. metro areas for 99th Annual Oscars consideration.
  • Russell's last film, 2022's Amsterdam, collapsed in theaters with $31 million globally against an $80 million budget, and the director has a documented history of combative behavior on his film sets.
