Lynch stars as Mr. G, a lovably aloof teacher who learns more about queer allyship as the supervisor for a feminist after-school fight club.
Retired NFL legend Marshawn Lynch’s latest acting venture is in honor of his sister.
The 2013 Super Bowl champion graces the big screen in the newly-released “Bottoms,” an LGBTQ+ coming-of-age film, starring Ayo Edebiri and Rachel Sennott, about teen girls who launch an after-school feminist fight club.
The film, which director Emma Seligman said she co-wrote with Sennott to represent queer stories in a light-hearted comedy, instantly reminded Lynch of his sister, Marreesha Sapp-Lynch, who came out as lesbian while in high school, today!
