The true story behind the founding of Merging Vets & Players, which Boyer co-founded with Jay Glazer in order to empower and connect combat veterans and former professional athletes and give them a new team to help with the transition to civilian life and promote personal development, is the basis for the Sylvester Stallone-executive produced film “MVP.”
The movie is set in the streets of Hollywood and follows the development of a friendship between a homeless soldier with PTSD and a struggling recently retired NFL star (Mo McRae) (Boyer). After their “golden days” are passed, the two men team up in quest of their true identities and purposes. Along with Tom Arnold, Rich Eisen, Dan Lauria, Randy Couture, Tony Gonzalez, Howie Long, Jarrod Bunch, and Michael Strahan, the film also stars Talia Jackson, Christina Ochoa, and Dina Shihabi.
“MVP” will have its theatrical on demand event to launch the in-theater fundraising drive in 35 locations, including every NFL market. The initiative invites Americans to sign up to schedule a screening of “MVP” in their neighborhood and donate the proceeds to Merging Vets & Players. Additional screenings will be held at both big and small theaters around the nation in the autumn of 2022, many of which will include live appearances by Boyer and notable guests including NFL players and local veterans. The national sponsor of the video is the GNC Live Well Foundation, which will also provide support for the whole 2022–2023 NFL season. There will be some screenings in collaboration with NFL teams like the Dallas Cowboys and Seattle Seahawks.
Additionally, Wiz Khalifa’s original song “Work4It” from “MVP” is featured. Along with Jerry C. Craig, Glazer, McRae, Joe Newcomb, Shanna and Rob Schanen, and Stallone and Braden Aftergood of Balboa Productions, they serve as executive producers. Producers include Boyer, Weston Scott Higgins, Nicholas Gibeault, Charles Berg, and Jared Hoffman.
