The film will begin filming next year in Europe. Butler is cast as Nikolai Trusevich in the movie. His character is an all-star goalkeeper who "served as a cornerstone and leader for his team."

He later became an inspiration for the entire battered city of Kiev in Ukraine. The movie is based on the story behind a soccer game that took place between an occupied Ukrainian soccer team and their Nazi captors during the World War II era.
