The Replacements (2000): 15 Insane Facts You Never Knew!

Keanu Reeves took a PAY CUT to get Gene Hackman on set. He gained 23 pounds for the role and the Baltimore Ravens offered him a real tryout during filming. The Replacements (2000) is already a cult classic, but the behind-the-scenes story is even wilder than the movie itself.
45 professional NFL players were hired for the football scenes and the entire cast was sent to a three-week football camp. Jack Warden's final ever film appearance. Jon Favreau, years before Iron Man, in a supporting role nobody talks about. And a jail scene set to "I Will Survive" that became one of the most beloved moments in 2000s sports comedy.
This is everything you didn't know about The Replacements.
