Will Ferrell Leads First Look at Netflix's 'The Hawk'

Netflix has released the first teaser for The Hawk, a comedy series due on the streamer later this summer. Will Ferrell stars as Lonnie "The Hawk" Hawkins, a professional golfer who topped the rankings in 2004 and is attempting a late-career comeback. The teaser centers on Ferrell’s Lonnie introducing himself, and the story will see him cross paths with old rivals on the PGA TOUR, including Golden Fisk, played by Luke Wilson.

The series assembles a broad comedic ensemble: Molly Shannon as Stacy, Jimmy Tatro as Lance, Fortune Feimster as Sam, Luke Wilson as Golden Fisk, Chris Parnell as Anton, Katelyn Tarver as Natalie, David Hornsby as Radford, Gabriel Hogan as Jerry, and Aida Osman as Crystal.

In the official description, Lonnie Hawkins struggles on the back nine of his career. His body says retire, but his heart says he’s not done. His ex-wife and his son Lance, golf’s new golden boy, believe he’s finished.
