Marshawn Lynch Role In Bottoms Was Inspired By His Sister
The American former football running back Marshawn and director Emma Seligman share the personal journey of casting Lynch in “Bottoms.”
Fans might be surprised to see the former athlete in a rather different role in a comedy about queer high school girls launching a fight club.
The director and co-writer, Emma Seligman, initially believed casting Lynch was a long shot.
The casting of Lynch as Mr. G was more personal, and he even asked his queer sister, Marreesha Sapp-Lynch before he took on the role.
Marreesha has identified herself as a lesbian since high school, and her brothers David, Marshawn, and Davone were very accepting.
Sapp-Lynch has said that her brothers celebrated her sexual orientation. Moreover, Marshawn actively took part in his sister’s wedding and even walked her down the aisle.
