Believe it or not, since 1997, there have been 14 Air Bud movies, and next year we are getting the 15th one. However, Air Bud Entertainment is having a hard time finding their star. So, producer Robert Vince is asking for your help.
Do you have an athletic (preferably one who can play basketball) pure-bred Golden Retriever that you think would be purrfect for the part? Then you can submit your best friend to Air Bud Search. Even if your Golden doesn’t win the part, there are other things they can win, like official Air Bud jerseys and signed movie merchandise, or a trip to the Hollywood premiere.
In Air Bud Returns, 12-year-old Jacob has always dreamt of being a star basketball player. After the passing of his father, that dream felt even more impossible. But everything changes when he and his mom move into his dad’s childhood home in Fernfield. There, Jacob discovers an original VHS of the Air Bud movie in his father’s belongings and has a chance meeting of a neglected golden retriever he names Buddy. Together, they embark on a journey of healing, unite a team of misfits, and chase a championship. Through it all they learn to play from the heart, believe in each other, and always take the shot!
Good luck! I hope your puppy becomes the next Air Bud.
