Madden famously won the Super Bowl back in 1976 with the Oakland Raiders before eventually becoming a staple on television alongside broadcasters like Pat Summerall.
It's certainly a different role than Cage fans are used to seeing in his movies, especially given him being featured in hit thrillers like Gone in 60 Seconds, Con Air and National Treasure.
Meanwhile, Christian Bale - who famously plays Batman - will also appear in the movie as former Las Vegas Raiders owner Al Davis.
