Sonny Weaver, Jr. is the general manager of National Football League team the Cleveland Browns who is faced with immediate dismissal if he does not put together an unbeatable draft pick for his team. With pressure from his associates and from Browns fans, he wants to make a spectacular impact on the football world on draft day but, with his ideas being very different from everyone else's, he's in for a big struggle to bring everyone round to his way of thinking and after making what seems like a professionally suicidal trade, even his mother starts to lose faith in him. Excitement builds as draft day nears, with everyone baffled by what could possibly be in store for the Cleveland Browns; but will Sonny pull through with the number one pick of the year?

'Draft Day' is a sports drama directed by the Oscar nominated Ivan Reitman ('Ghostbusters', 'Twins', 'Kindergarten Cop') and written by Scott Rothman and Rajiv Joseph in their screenwriting debuts. Although the Cleveland Browns are a genuine NFL team, the film is a fictional story based around their fictitious general manager who is played by Kevin Costner. 'Draft Day' will be hitting the US movie theatres on April 11th 2014.
