A new movie starring Ice Cube and KeKe Palmer will hit theaters this Friday. “The Longshots” is a true story based on the life of Jasmine Plummer, the first girl to play Pop Warner football in its 56-year history. Here’s a synopsis of the “family-friendly dramedy”!

Curtis Plummer (Ice Cube)– a down-on-his-luck former high school football star — turns his niece, Jasmine (KeKe Palmer), into the quarterback of the local team, the Minden Browns, and gets his stride back when he becomes the team coach. With Curtis as their new leader and their pigtail-wearing star player, this team of misfits wins its way to the Pop Warner Super Bowl and the small city of Minden, Illinois, is ignited with team spirit, town pride and the glory it once knew.
