PREVIOUS, May 13: Netflix has unveiled the official teaser for The Hawk, Will Ferrell’s upcoming golf comedy series, which will premiere July 16 on the streamer. The teaser and premiere date were announced Wednesday during Netflix’s Upfront presentation in New York. The streamer also released some first-look photos which you can see below.

In the clip, it’s clear, golf legend Hawk is ready for a comeback. “Oh, Mama, I”m back!,” he shouts as he hits a line drive straight into a bystander. “Oh, I’m not back!” You can watch it above.

Per the logline, in The Hawk Lonnie Hawkins, (Ferrell) 2004’s number one golfer, struggles on the back nine of his career to recapture his magic. His body says retire, but his heart says he’s not done yet. His ex-wife and his son Lance, golf’s new golden boy, know he’s through. But with one more major to win to complete golf’s Grand Slam, Lonnie refuses to believe he’s anything other than one stroke away from the greatest comeback in golf history.

Molly Shannon portrays Lonnie’s foul-mouthed ex-wife Stacy, along with Jimmy Tatro, Fortune Feimster, Luke Wilson, Chris Parnell, Katelyn Tarver and David Hornsby.

Ferrell was sidelined for a short time in November, when he suffered a minor injury off-set. While not serious, it did keep him from filming a few scenes, forcing producers to re-arrange the schedule as he recovered, according to TMZ.

Ferrell, Jessica Elbaum and Alix Taylor executive produce for Gloria Sanchez Productions. Rian Johnson, Ram Bergman and Nena Rodrigue are executive producers for T-Street. Chris Henchy, Harper Steele, David Gordon Green and Andrew Guest will serve as executive producers.
