Background
We teamed up with a professional soccer analyst to ensure that the soccer dialogue was as accurate and authentic as possible. It was important that the Nuns weren’t merely casual fans. They needed to speak about soccer on a professional soccer analyst level.
Execution
It was important to cast characters as authentic and real as possible. The more they looked and acted like real Nuns, the more they would be unexpected soccer experts. The comedy couldn’t come from goofy or over-the-top characters. The spot needed to feel like we’re looking in on a scene taking place in an authentic convent.
