Tom Hanks to Star in Baseball Movie With Bad Bunny and Colman Domingo Eyed for Roles; Sony Leads Bidding War for Marielle Heller Project (EXCLUSIVE) 14 hours ago Rick Caruso, Boxed Lunches and a Process Server Party Crasher: Inside the Curious Case of TEDx Beverly Grove 16 hours ago Gwyneth Paltrow to Star in ‘Strangers’ as Netflix Wins Movie Rights to Belle Burden’s Blockbuster Memoir 2 days ago Tom Hanks and Marielle Heller are feeling the 7-year itch, following their Oscar-nominated 2019 collaboration “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.” The director and star are plotting a reunion for a poignant baseball dramedy feature that’s already attracted multiple studio bidders, Variety has learned.
Hanks will star in an adaptation of the short story “The Comebacker,” with Heller to direct.
ماذا نعرف عن المشروع؟
Both Hanks and Heller will produce the film through their respective production labels.
The source material is from Pulitzer Prize finalist Dave Eggers, whose works “A Hologram for the King” and “The Circle” both inspired films starring Hanks.
لماذا يهم الخبر؟
Rap supernova Bad Bunny and Oscar nominee Colman Domingo are eyeing roles in the project, sources said.
While acquisition talks are active at studios across town, sources said Sony Pictures is in pole position to win the film thanks to an attractive offer and, of course, history, as Sony released “A Beautiful Day.” “The Comebacker” is the first in a series of shorts by Eggers for a story collection titled “The Forgetters.” It follows a fading sports journalist named Lionel whose passion for his craft and his life is awakened by a pitcher called up from the minor leagues.
ما التالي؟
The title refers to an injury the pitcher suffered, when a batter sent a ball back with brute force into the pitcher’s skull.
After the injury, the pitcher exhibits unexpected behavior, including poetic speech that makes stories written by Hanks’ journalist resonate with readers across the country.
