Comedy starring Keanu Reeves and Gene Hackman. When a professional football team goes on strike, the owner hires substitute players., The 1987 National Football League players’ strike inspired this sports-themed comedy. The Washington Sentinels are one of the strongest teams in pro football — until contract negotiations break down and the Sentinels go on strike. Determined to play the team’s schedule, owner Edward O’Neil (Jack Warden) recruits a ragtag band of scab players, to be headed up and whipped into shape by the retired veteran coach Jimmy McGinty (Gene Hackman). At the top of the recruitment list is quarterback Shane Falco (Keanu Reeves), a promising athlete until a catastrophic defeat in the Sugar Bowl dashed his confidence. Joining Falco on the team are Clifford Franklin (Orlando Jones), a receiver who can’t catch the ball; Nigel Gruff (Rhys Ifans), a chain-smoking Welsh soccer player; Bateman (Jon Favreau), a former cop with anger management problems; Fumiko (Ace Yonamine), a sumo wrestler new to football; and Wilkinson (Michael Jace), a convict on parole to the Sentinels. Can McGinty mold his new squad of misfits and no-hopers (who truly love the game) into a winning team? Brooke Langton plays Annabelle, head of the Sentinels’ cheerleading squad (who has to contend with replacements of her own), and football commentators John Madden and Pat Summerall appear as themselves., In this action-packed football comedy, a washed-up quarterback (Keanu Reeves) gets a second chance when pro-football players walk out mid-season. Gene Hackman plays the talented coach who leads a team of benchwarmers to a shot at the championship. Brooke Langton, Jon Favreau, Jack Warden, Orlando Jones., The Washington Sentinels go on strike, but veteran coach Jimmy McGinty knows talent when he sees it, signing up bodyguards, strippers, crooks and cops alike to beat the picket line and score some touchdowns. A cracking feelgood sports drama., Washington Sentinels is one of the most important teams in American football. But before the Super Bowl, the players go on strike over contract problems. In their determination to make the league, coach Jimmy McGinty (Gene Hackman) and owner Edward O’Neil (Jack Warden) summon a group of substitute players with something in common: social adaptability problems and frustration. The leader is Shane Falco (Keanu Reeves), a promising athlete who is still affected by a great failure. Now McGinty has a tough mission before him: to turn this gang of losers into a winning team. The Replacements was inspired in the National Football League strike of 1987., During a pro-football strike, a savvy owner hires an unconventional coach to keep the season alive with second-stringers., Following an NFL strike, professional team owners scramble to sign up ex-pros, minor leaguers and other ‘scabs’ to help them to the play-offs.
