Football fans, we know it's a hectic time for you. We're approaching the last few games ahead of the Super Bowl, and it's no joke! But we have something that'll definitely ease your nerves: News of the upcoming football-comedy, 80 for Brady.

The forthcoming football film is nothing like we've seen before! It doesn't lead with a cast of professional athletes as you'd might expect. (Though, there are definitely a few featured.) Instead, 80 for Brady contains an all-star cast including Sally Field, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno, and Lily Tomlin. Plus, it's produced by legendary quarterback Tom Brady (hence the name)! And if that weren't enough, we just received news that Dolly Parton will release an original single for the flick!

Lucky for us, it's set to hit theaters just before the big game. Basically leaving us with enough time to distract ourselves a bit as we plan out our menu of Super Bowl recipes.

What is '80 for Brady' about?

But their journey to score tickets is anything but ordinary—or wholesome, for that matter!

Is there a soundtrack?

Yes! And it's lead single, "Gonna Be You," features none other than Dolly Parton herself. Written by award-winning song writer Diane Warren—she was able to convince Parton and a bunch of other iconic singers from the 1980's to jump on board for the track. Belinda Carlisle, Cyndi Lauper, Gloria Estefan, and Debbie Harry are all featured on the single.

“I wanted to write a song that celebrated these women’s deep friendship,” Warren reportedly said. “Since 80 was in the title I got a crazy idea: Why not get some of the most iconic singers from the '80s, who are still amazing and always will be, to all sing it?”
