Over the course of their winning season these underdogs and their resilient spirit became an inspiration to their city, state, and an entire nation in need of a rebound, even catching the attention of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The architect of their success was Rusty Russell, a legendary high school coach who shocked his colleagues by giving up a privileged position so he could teach and coach at an orphanage. Few knew Rusty&#8217;s secret: that he himself was an orphan.\u00a0 Recognizing that his scrawny players couldn&#8217;t beat the other teams with brawn, Rusty developed innovative strategies that would come to define modern football.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the trailer for the film:<\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"cgM_oyXE0d0\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"12 MIGHTY ORPHANS | Official Trailer (2021)\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cgM_oyXE0d0?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><em>12 Mighty Orphans<\/em> is screening in the Spotlight Narrative section at the <a href=\"https:\/\/tribecafilm.com\/films\/12-mighty-orphans-2021\">Tribeca Film Festival<\/a> and opens in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sonyclassics.com\/film\/12mightyorphans\/\">theaters nationwide<\/a> on June 18<sup>th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In director Ty Roberts\u2019 Great Depression-era sports drama, 12 Mighty Orphans, a group of underdog achieve unprecedented football success thanks to the encouragement and positive direction of coach Rusty Russell (Luke Wilson).
