'12 Mighty Orphans' Revolves Around a Texan Football Team — but Where Was the Movie Filmed?

Take a look at an essential overview on '12 Mighty Orphans' Revolves Around a Texan Football Team — but Where Was the Movie Filmed.

"There's something that happens to filmmakers when you shoot in the place where it happened," Lane Garrison, who plays Luther in 12 Mighty Orphans, told Fort Worth Weekly. "We could have shot this in Oklahoma and saved a pretty penny, but we had extras [who] went to the Masonic Home, [who] played with or against the Mites. You won't get that truth if you don't have the actual location."

Several crew members insisted that shooting the movie in Fort Worth made the most sense.

"You're not always lucky enough to shoot in the place where it happened," Luke Wilson said. "For a story this important, I was happy to be in Fort Worth."

Friday, June 11, 2021, marks the Texas-wide premiere of 12 Mighty Orphans. The movie will arrive in cinemas around the country on June 18, 2021.
