NEW YORK, Aug. 16 /PRNewswire/ --
WHO: From the film - Mark Wahlberg, Elizabeth Banks, Vince Papale,
director Ericson Core and producers Gordon Gray and Mark Ciardi,
the producing team that brought you THE ROOKIE and MIRACLE

WHAT: Walt Disney Pictures' World Premiere of INVINCIBLE.

From the studio that brought you "The Rookie" and "Remember The Titans" comes INVINCIBLE, inspired by the true story of Vince Papale (MARK WAHLBERG), a man with nothing to lose who ignored the staggering odds and made his dream come true. When the coach (GREG KINNEAR) of Papale's beloved hometown football team hosted an unprecedented open tryout, the public consensus was that it was a waste of time -- no one good enough to play professional football was going to be found this way. Certainly no one like Papale -- a down-on-his-luck, 30 year-old, substitute teacher and part-time bartender who never even played college football. But against these odds, Papale made the team and soon found himself living every fan's fantasy -- moving from his cheap seats in the upper deck to standing on the field as a professional football player.
