THE FILM

Based on Tom Callahan’s

New York Times Best Seller,

Johnny U: The Life & Times of Johnny  Unitas.

[The book is the only family authorized biography on John.]

A story for the ages, now coming to life on screen by Johnny's son Joe Unitas. 


A story bigger than football. A story of true character, deep faith and the determination to overcome great obstacles.


He was an underdog. Yet, after experiencing a devastating personal loss as a child, Johnny went on to prove the experts wrong by becoming one of the greatest players in the history of the game - through sheer determination and God-given talent.


In additon to Tom's book, Screenwriter/Producer Joe Unitas utilized interviews with his family members, John’s former teammates, opponents and, of course, his first hand observation in developing the powerful screenplay. He was inspired by a blend of films in the sports genre akin to Rudy, Rocky, Raging Bull, and The Natural. 


It is time Johnny's story comes to life. He is considered the godfather of the modern day quarterback. He paid the price with debilitating injuries and was a propenent of protecting the athletes health in his post-NFL career. Johnny always played it forward in the game, and he paid it forward in life.  


Now, more than ever, his story needs to be told.
