‘The Hawk’ Rotten Tomatoes Reviews Splatter Will Ferrell Golf Comedy
- Will Ferrell stars in the 10-episode golf comedy 'The Hawk', which premiered Thursday on Netflix, exploring the pressures of professional sports on family dynamics through the story of a washed-up golfer.
- After his career cratered in 2010 at Pebble Beach following a three-foot putt miss, Lonnie 'The Hawk' Hawkins now competes on the minor league Korn Ferry Tour, facing his son Lance , a rising PGA pro.
- Lonnie's relationships deepen through his strained dynamic with ex-wife Stacy and a new bond with Sam , an inexperienced drifter replacing his late longtime caddy, Old Henry .
- Co-Creators Harper Steele, Chris Henchy, and Ferrell developed the series with director David Gordon Green, channeling the irreverent DNA of HBO's 'Eastbound and Down', an earlier Ferrell collaboration.
- Following in the tradition of golf-themed films like 'Happy Gilmore', this marks Ferrell's first series regular role since his 'Saturday Night Live' days, positioning him as a returning force in television comedy.
