Acclaimed Oscar-winning director Taika Waititi (best known for Jojo Rabbit, Thor: Ragnarok) is at the helm of Next Goal Wins, a light-hearted comedy centered on the American Samoa soccer team. This team is notoriously recognized for their savage 31-0 beating in a 2001 FIFA match. As they gear up for the forthcoming World Cup Qualifiers, they place their hopes in the hands of Thomas Rongen, a renegade coach down on his luck and played by Michael Fassbender, banking on him to reform their sports misfortunes, turning this into a loveable tale of the underdogs.
