FirstLadyB | Connecting Faith and Hollywood
The Kendrick Brothers have just completed filming their sixth feature film, “OVERCOMER,” which teams them back up with War Room star and author, Priscilla Shirer.
After a long season of prayer and preparation, the brothers are ready to release “OVERCOMER” in theaters next August.
About the faith based film:
When everything fades away, who are you—and whose are you? In OVERCOMER, life changes overnight for high school basketball coach John Harrison (played by Alex Kendrick), as his state championship dreams are crushed by the unexpected news that the largest manufacturing plant in town is shutting down—and families are moving out. That’s when John meets an aspiring athlete on a journey toward discovery.
Priscilla Shirer (War Room) is back with the Kendrick Brothers for OVERCOMER, playing the school principal, Olivia Brooks. Shari Rigby (October Baby) plays John’s wife, Amy, and newcomer Aryn Wright-Thompson plays Hannah, an unlikely distance runner in need of a coach. There also seems to be guest appearances from Tina Campbell, Dr. Jamal Bryant, and Dr. Ireashea Hilliard.
OVERCOMER hits theaters August 23, 2019.
