AVERAGE JOE is based on the life of US Marine (ret.) and high
school football coach Joseph Kennedy
and details his fight for his marriage, job, and religious freedom
when all of the odds were stacked against him.
"It is an honor to bring Coach Kennedy's powerful story to life
on the big screen," said director Harold
Cronk. "I hope audiences walk away inspired, hopeful and
determined to fight for their freedoms."
"As moviegoers come to the theater and take their seats, we hope
that they will see just how important taking a knee was for one
man, his family and for religious freedom," said Ray Nutt, CEO of Fathom Events. "We're thrilled
to be partnering again with GND Media on this exceptional film
and are looking forward to bringing it to theaters all across the
county."
SYNOPSIS: High school football coach Joe
Kennedy had no other choice but to fight. A childhood in
foster care followed by 20 years in the Marine Corps was nothing
compared to his biggest battle: his commitment to stand for God
publicly by taking a knee in prayer after each game. When he was
fired, Joe and his wife Denise knew this battle for religious
freedom, freedom of speech, and the rights of all Americans was one
they would have to fight—no matter the cost. From the director and
producers of God's Not Dead and the producers of The Blind comes
AVERAGE JOE, in theaters beginning October
11.
Tickets for AVERAGE JOE can be purchased online here and at
participating theater box offices. A complete list of theaters can
be found at the Fathom Events website.
