Strap those hockey pads back on because the final Canadian trailer has landed for Goon: Last of the Enforcers, the follow-up to, you guessed it, Goon. After the hardest hitter in the game, Doug Glatt (Sean William Scott) is told by a doctor he should never play hockey again, he enters the real world of — *shudders* — the 9-to-5. However, when Doug stumbles upon an old rival (Liev Shcreiber), he begins training to reclaim his team and his glory. Be careful, though, this trailer contains swear words, so slap some ear muffs over the kids before you put this one on ice.
This time, Jay Baruchel (a side character in the first), takes a bigger role as co-writer, director, and actor. The rest of the cast is rounded off by Elisha Cuthbert, Alison Pill, T.J. Miller, Kim Coates, and Wyatt Russell. While we’re still waiting a U.S. release date for this one, see the trailer, along with an extended synopsis and poster, below.
GOON: LAST OF THE ENFORCERS is an upcoming 2017 sports comedy film directed by Canadian actor Jay Baruchel in his directorial debut. It is written by Baruchel and Jesse Chabot as a sequel to the 2011 film Goon. The cast including Sean William Scott, Allison Pill, Liev Schreiber, Elisha Cuthbert, Wyatt Russell, and Baruchel.
It’s a new day for the Halifax Highlanders. A pro lockout has reunited old teammates and brought a crew of new players to the bench; notably missing from the line-up, however, is everyone’s favourite enforcer and heart of the team, Doug “The Thug” Glatt (Scott). Sidelined after one too many hits and now married with a baby on the way, Doug is hanging up his skates and settling into life as an insurance salesman. But when Doug’s nemesis, Anders Cain (Russell), is made captain of the Highlanders and new ownership threatens to tear his team apart, Doug is compelled back into action. Ignoring the wishes of wife Eva (Pill), Doug heads to the rink, discovering an unlikely training partner in fellow retired enforcer and one-time arch rival, Ross “The Boss” Rhea (Schreiber). Together with grit, passion and unrivaled loyalty, they will grind out one last chance to do what they do best…protect their team.
Goon: Last of the Enforcers skids into Canadian theaters on March 17th.
