The ramifications of Brad Pitt’s wheeling-and-dealing Billy Beane from Moneyball have begun to echo through other sports films. Ivan Reitman’s latest film is Draft Day, starring Kevin Costner as the general manager of the Cleveland Browns, whose job is on the line if his upcoming draft doesn’t yield a team that impresses his owner (Frank Langella). Costner—who will appear in five films in 2014 after a decade of taking on about one project per year—also contends with Denis Leary as a new coach from some version of the Dallas Cowboys that is still winning titles instead of the nearly two-decade Super Bowl drought in real life. The NFL is a ratings juggernaut, the most popular cultural event in the country, and Draft Day brings all the excitement of the offseason to the screen. (But seriously, with a new coach, just find a way to get the best quarterback possible for the system—it’s the most important position in American sports.)
