As mentioned, Taika Waititi wrote and directed Next Goal Wins, based on the 2014 documentary film of the same title. The film dramatizes the surreal true story of Thomas Rongen, who successfully led one of the world’s weakest professional soccer teams to victory, eventually earning the team qualification in the FIFA World Cup, much to the shock of sports fans from around the globe.
Rongen is portrayed hilariously by Michael Fassbender in the movie, with performers such as Oscar Kightley, Rachel House, David Fane, Will Arnett, Kaimana, and Mad Men‘s Elisabeth Moss rounding out the cast.
