Synopsis

Brian Banks (2019) is an American drama based on a true story — watch online on iFILM. Director Tom Shadyac, known for Liar Liar and Ace Ventura, took on one of the most grounding cases in recent sports history: a Long Beach teenager lost five years of his life, his NFL prospects, and his freedom over an accusation that was never true. Aldis Hodge leads the cast alongside Greg Kinnear and Morgan Freeman.

Banks was on track for a college scholarship and a pro career when a false rape charge sent him to prison. After his release, the sex offender registry and probation conditions made rebuilding his life nearly impossible. Attorney Justin Brooks of the California Innocence Project took on his case.

The real Brian Banks was fully exonerated and signed an NFL contract in 2013. He was involved in the production of this film. The story lands hard precisely because it avoids turning a legal injustice into a sermon. Stream Brian Banks (2019) online on iFILM.
