Invincible

Invincible is a Walt Disney film based on the true "Cinderella" story of football player Vince Papale and his unlikely acceptance onto the Philadelphia Eagles franchise at the age of 30.

Philadelphia Eagles coach Dick Vermeil (played by Kinnear) decides to hold open tryouts for the team. Wahlberg plays Vince Papale, a 30-year-old bartended and recently fired teacher. His wife leaves him, leaving a note telling him he will never amount to anything. Papale's neighborhood friends support him when he decides to take advantage of the open tryouts. Against the odds, Papale earns a spot on the team and is given an opportunity to play in an actual NFL game.

1. Greg Kinnear researched his role by spending time with Dick Vermeil as he coached the Kansas City Chiefs.
2. The Philadelphia Eagles and the National Football League supported the movie.
3. Many former Eagles plaers gave permission for Disney to use their names.
4. Vince Papale played three seasons for the Eagles and was the Special Teams Captain in 1978.
