Lionsgate’s highly anticipated feature film American Underdog will feature the uplifting and inspirational original song “Love Changes Everything” performed by Vince Gill featuring Mickey Guyton when the movie debuts in theaters nationwide on Christmas Day.
The song is now available on streaming platforms everywhere, and fans can find the song by clicking HERE. Released on the MCA Nashville label, “Love Changes Everything” is written by John Thomas Harding and Tom Douglas, and produced by Robert Deaton.
Tickets for American Underdog are now on sale at all ticketing platforms. Moviegoers can check local listings for locations and showtimes.
“This is a perfect song to close out the film,” said Jon and Andrew Erwin. “It’s very much a theme of the movie that Kurt Warner was only ready for success when the love of his life changed everything for him. Vince and Mickey’s soulful song connects on every emotional level.”
Gill and Guyton added, “It’s a dream come true for us to be working together. Not only are we huge fans of each other’s voices and musicianship – we’re hugely inspired by each other. What a thrill to have this song make its debut as part of a movie that is all about the power of faith, family, and ultimately, love.”
“When I saw the movie for the first time, I knew that this had to be a special song. It could not be a love song in the traditional sense, because the Warners’ story is so much more than that,” added Deaton, the song producer. “For me, this was a dream team moment – working with all of these great people, and keeping the focus on the story of Kurt and Brenda. I hope the song can connect to other people and relate to them in their own life and realize that Love Changes Everything.”
American Underdog tells the inspirational true story of Kurt Warner (Zachary Levi), who went from a stockboy at a grocery store to a two-time NFL MVP, Super Bowl champion, and Hall of Fame quarterback. The film centers on Warner’s unique story and years of challenges and setbacks that could have derailed his aspirations to become an NFL player – but just when his dreams seemed all but out of reach, it is only with the support of his wife, Brenda (Anna Paquin) and the encouragement of his family, coaches, and teammates that Warner perseveres and finds the strength to show the world the champion that he already is. American Underdog is an uplifting story that demonstrates that anything is possible when you have faith, family and determination. Starring Zachary Levi, Anna Paquin, and Dennis Quaid, the film is directed by The Erwin Brothers from a screenplay by Jon Erwin & David Aaron Cohen and Jon Gunn, based on the book ‘All Things Possible’ by Kurt Warner and Michael Silver. The producers are Kevin Downes, Jon Erwin, Andrew Erwin, Mark Ciardi, and Daryl Lefever.
