Former NFL star Marshawn Lynch has taken on a new role as Mr. G in the film Bottoms and it's a gesture of reconciliation for his initial reaction to his sister Marresha Sapp-Lynch coming out to him as a lesbian.
Marresha shared with People magazine that Marshawn had many questions and felt responsible for the situation. She explained that he was always telling her not to talk to boys, and would ask everyone at a party if they had danced with her. But she wasn't attracted to boys.
Director and co-writer of Bottoms, Emma Seligman, initially thought that they wouldn't be able to get Lynch for the film. But after his sister gave him her blessing, he agreed to take the role. Seligman said that Lynch felt like this was the universe giving him a chance to right his wrongs.
When Marresha and her wife showed up on set, Lynch would beam with pride and tell people proudly that Marresha was his sister. He was also heavily involved in planning Marresha's wedding in 2021, often talking to her about decorations at 5 a.m. and pushing them to move their wedding up two years from 2023 to 2021. Marresha said that the fact that he cried while escorting her meant a lot to her. She also shared that he was very much involved in the planning, calling them at 5 a.m. to talk about cake designs and party favors.
