Thrown into unfamiliar circumstances teenager Skylar Forest, traumatized by the recent death of her parents, finds purpose in life by learning about Will Rogers, embracing her Native American heritage and breaking down gender barriers, all on the way to a state baseball championship and ultimately discovering what drives her Will To Win.

A YEAR OF PROGRESS

One year ago this month, director Sean McNamara visited Tulsa for the first time to scout locations with our producers, kicking off what would become a year of exciting progress for Will to Win. Since that visit, we’ve brought him onto the team and made incredible strides together, from engaging international film studios and talented actors to connecting with passionate investors and raising critical funds to bring this story to life. Every step has brought us closer to sharing Skylar Forest’s inspiring journey and celebrating Will Rogers’ timeless legacy. We’re proud of how far we’ve come and are excited for what’s next as we continue to build momentum toward production! 

‘WILL TO WIN’ GARNERS NATIONAL INTEREST

Excitement for Will to Win is spreading across the United States, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible outpouring of support! From film enthusiasts to history buffs and baseball fans, so many of you have expressed enthusiasm for this story, and we are thrilled to bring it to life. As we continue developing the project, we are especially eager to connect with those who currently live in Oklahoma or have lived in the state and are interested in joining our crew. If you have experience in film production and want to be part of this inspiring journey, please send your resume and materials to willtowinmovie@kkp.film. Let’s make this film a homegrown success together!

WILL’S CHILI RECIPE

National Chili Day is February 27th! There’s no better way to celebrate than by cooking up a pot of Will Rogers’ favorite dish! Will was a true chili lover, and we’re sharing his personal recipe so you can enjoy it just like he did.

Grab your ingredients, fire up the stove, and let’s honor Will’s legacy with a hearty bowl of his all-time favorite comfort food. If you post your creation, be sure to tag @WillToWin!
