So you’re going to have to ask yourself, ‘What am I willing to sacrifice?’ During Universal’s CinemaCon presentation in early April, Wayans said the film had all the makings of a sports drama from the 90s. “It’s kinda like Rudy,” Wayans said. “It’s nothing at all like Rudy.” Withers responded, noting that the film is “something that burrows under the skin.” Him is set to premiere in theaters on September 19.
