Angel Light Pictures has acquired the rights to produce the action-sport film, "The Golden Knights," an incredible story about dedication and friendship between an 80's high-school football team and a head coach determined to end a 25 – game losing streak and making their dreams come true.
Angel Light Pictures is gearing to start filming in the fall of 2010 and is expected to hit theaters in 2011 on Christmas day. Antonio Saillant will be on board as the writer and executive producer for the film.
Ted Kotcheff is rumored to come on board as producer for "The Golden Knights." If you enjoy football movies Kotcheff is no stranger. "North Dallas Forty," which was written and directed by Kotcheff was one of the best sports film of all times, about a 1970s era professional football team based in Dallas, Texas named the North Dallas Bulls, which closely resembles the Dallas Cowboys. Nick Nolte plays the aging wide receiver.
Kotcheff and Saillant are already said to be producing "1066", an eagerly awaited historical epic that portrays the events that led to the great battle at Hasting. Directed by Robin Jacobs.
