With the kind of fame that Tom Brady has gathered in his years in the NFL, it is no surprise that fans are going berserk at the star quarterback-turned-movie star’s newest venture.

Tom Brady Gets Praised For His Performance

As soon as Brady reached the venue for the premiere, he was greeted by a horde of fans chanting his name non-stop. His co-stars were present on the red carpet with him. One of his co-stars, Tomlin, had nothing but nice things to say about him. She told The Hollywood Reporter, “He was a wonderful actor. He listens, which is the key mark of a good actor. He really listens and he responds in the moment and you can see him thinking and processing what you’re saying to him, just like it’s real life.”

Seems like the fans are not the only ones who Brady has won over with his new-found acting skills. Even the director of the film, Kyle Marvin, praised the tremendous performance delivered by Brady on-screen. He said, “The crazy thing is he’s not a professional actor but he really delivered in this thing.”
