Now or Never: A Tony Romo Story, is the true story of Tony Romo, a kid from Burlington, Wisconsin, who went on to become one of the most prolific quarterbacks to play for one of the most storied franchises in NFL history, the Dallas Cowboys. Told through Romo's own eyes, this independently produced documentary portrays a man whose passion for the game continues to inspire his fans, community, family and friends.
Filmed and produced by El Paso's ZGN Productions, approved by Tony Romo and licensed in association with NFL Films, the three-year journey to the documentary was completed in 2020 and is now available for streaming worldwide via Amazon Prime video, Google Play, Hoopla, Vudo, YouTube and more. Now or Never follows Romo's life through his high school, college, and NFL career to tell the story of how Tony Romo became the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. Tony's community describes the impact Tony has on them by returning each year. His father gives insight into the origins of Tony's passion for sports.
Tony's grandparents describe their own journey from Mexico, and how their dreams of success transferred to Tony. His coaches and former teammates detail how Tony found his passion for football in high school and went on to receive a scholarship from Eastern Illinois University. They explain the ups and downs of his career as a Dallas Cowboy—the wins, losses, injuries, and ultimate retirement. We also learn how, despite the fact that Tony never won a Super Bowl, Tony has still made a wonderful impact on his hometown by proving that if you dream big, you can accomplish anything.
Since we filmed and completed production in 2020, we have been on a journey to license the film and bring this labor of love to the masses,
said filmmaker Christian Hanna. Now with licensing from NFL Films and the support of our distributor Exploration Films, our dream to film, produce, and distribute an independent documentary on our hero Tony Romo has been achieved. We cannot wait to bring it to the digital video realm.
Hanna is an award-winning filmmaker whose work also includes the documentary Art of a Cowboy and the regional Emmy award-winning film Pitch Black.
