TORONTO — Shawn Levy is lacing up for a Netflix hockey drama that follows the story of a small town picking itself up in the aftermath of a devastating high school bus crash.
The Montreal-born filmmaker is executive producing the eight-episode series, starring “The White Lotus” actress Michelle Monaghan.
Set in a working-class Minnesota town, the as-yet-titled project tells the story of a successful young hockey team that’s racked up state championships and fostered future National Hockey League stars, under the leadership of its legendary coach Sully.
When a bus crash claims the lives of several players and Sully himself, the town turns to his widow, played by Monaghan, to lead the team forward as their new coach.
The first two episodes of the series will be directed by Trey Edward Sh
