As anticipation builds for the premiere of the comedy-drama film 80 for Brady, Paramount Pictures released a sentimental music video the other day titled Gonna Be You, sung by some of the greatest female artists of the 1980s, Dolly Patton, Belinda Carlisle, Cyndi Lauper and Gloria Estefan.
The songbirds perform alongside flash previews of the film’s primary characters bonding and having the time of their lives. Watch below:
A Book Club lookalike, 80 for Brady follows four best friends of the golden age Trish (Jane Fonda), Betty (Sally Field), Maura (Rita Moreno) and Lou (Lily Tomlin), who decide to take a wild trip to Houston to watch the New England Patriots and their hero Tom Brady play in the 2017 Super Bowl.
Apart from the protagonists, the movie features an ensemble cast including American football quarterback Tom Brady as himself, Billy Porter as Gugu, Rob Corddry as Pat, Alex Moffat as Nat, restaurateur Guy Fieri as himself, Harry Hamlin as Dan, Bob Balaban as Mark, Glynn Turman as Mickey and Sara Gilbert as Sara.
We also have Jimmy O. Yang as Tony, Ron Funches as Chip, Sally Kirkland as Ida, Patton Oswalt as Brisket, Alex Bentley as Matt Patricia, Retta as herself, Matt Lauria and Marc Rebillet.
Brady's former teammates, Danny Amendola, Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski , also make cameo appearances.
From the looks of it, 80 for Brady is going to be a blast!
