This is the first we have heard of the movie, but we are all in.Check out the first trailer for “Pelé: Birth of a Legend” which is set to release in theaters on May 6th, and video on demand just a week later.
PELÉ tells the miraculous story of the legendary soccer player’s rise to glory from a young boy, to the 17 year old who scored the winning goal in Brazil’s first ever World Cup victory in 1958. From a life full of disadvantages and an impoverished youth in Brazil, Pelé used his unorthodox yet authentic style of play and his unbeatable spirit to overcome all odds, find greatness and inspire a country that he changed forever.
The movie was originally set to be released in 2014 around the World Cup, but was delayed due to post-production issues.
