“With Intramural, we’re setting out to make an epic sports movie for the guys who don’t deserve one,” stated Disney. “We’ve got a hilarious script, a terrific ensemble cast, and one hell of a production team. I can’t wait to start shooting in Austin.”
The Plot:
Intramural is set in the highly popular world of college intramural sports, a subculture that has yet to be explored in film, providing a unique spin to the sports comedy genre. Caleb Fuller is a fifth year college senior with marriage and law school ahead of him. As his daunting future looms ominously on the horizon, Caleb longs to do something that doesn’t matter before he graduates, something just for fun. When his impulsive roommate Hank suggests they form a football team, Caleb sets off to reassemble his former squad, The Panthers, for one last shot at intramural glory.
