Set in the heyday of drag racing and based on a true story, “Snake & Mongoo$e” uncovers for the first time on the big screen the compelling rivalry and breakthrough sports marketing accomplishments of Don “The Snake” Prudhomme (played by Jesse Williams) and Tom “The Mongoo$e” McEwen (Richard Blake), including a Hot Wheels partnership that proved game-changing for all parties.
