Letterboxd pulled back the curtain on six of our 2026 Seahawks, revealing their “Mt Rushmore’s” of favorite movies, and honestly, this insight into the guys is pure gold for us fans. You think you know a player from their work on the Lumen Field turf, but these lists give us a glimpse into what makes our squad tick off the field. Seriously, this is awesome.
From Thoughtful Thrillers to Family Fun
First up, Leonard Williams drops a seriously interesting mix with *The Odyssey*, *Interstellar*, *Friday Night Lights*, and *The Fast and The Furious*. That’s a blend of thoughtful sci-fi and historical epic, mixed with sports and action classics. Talk about range! Then there’s Rashid Shaheed, whose list is an eclectic mix that I personally love: *Spider-Man 3*, *Inception*, *Hunger Games*, and *Gone Girl*. We’re talking action, thriller, comic book vibes, and mind bending science fiction. It feels like a player who brings unexpected moves to the field. Byron Murphy II shows off a true movie buff’s eye with *Imitation of Life*, *Flowers in the Attic*, *American Gangster*, *Scarface*, and *Rosewood*. That’s a deep dive into classic movies alongside some more modern dramas. The variety here is unreal, showing off some seriously diverse personalities in the locker room.
Emerald City Shout-Outs and Childhood Classics
Abraham Lucas’s picks are just as wild: *Mad Max: Fury Road*, *Dredd*, *Shawshank Redemption*, *Finding Nemo*, and *Spirit: Stallion of Cimarron*. Action, a couple of children’s classics, and then *Shawshank Redemption*, which is an all time great. What’s not to love in that? And AJ Barner delivers another fantastic variety mix with *Shutter Island*, *Little Giants*, *Good Will Hunting*, *Cheaper By The Dozen*, and then, an honorable mention that gives a huge shout out to the Emerald City: *Sleepless in Seattle*! You have to love a guy who embraces our city’s romance classic like that. Finally, Elijah Arroyo’s list is straight out of a millennial childhood dream: *The Benchwarmers*, *Harry Potter*, *Transformers*, and *The Iron Man Movies*. Those are the kind of films that shaped a generation, and it’s super relatable.
These lists aren’t just fun facts; they’re a peek into the personalities that make up our Seahawks locker room. From award winning dramas to films you can just put on and enjoy, they show us the variety of interests on the team. It’s early in the regular season, and seeing this kind of depth and range in our guys just gets you hyped for what they’re gonna bring to Lumen Field every Sunday. Can’t wait to see them make their own highlights reel this season!
