In 2009, Alcon Entertainment and Warner Bros. released The Blind Side, a football film written and directed by John Lee Hancock. The story was based on real-life events featuring Michael Oher, a "homeless and traumatized boy who became an All-American football player and first-round NFL draft pick with the help of a caring woman and her family." The Blind Side released to mixed reviews but grossed $255,959,475 in the United States while Oher entered the NFL as a first-round pick in the 2009 NFL Draft.

Sandra Bullock, the best-known name from The Blind Side, has released a string of critical successes in the years since the film's release. Many of the other cast members have continued to work in a variety of ways. The list includes Tim McGraw, who has found considerable success as both a musician and an actor.
