Swing Batta Batta


Major League writer/director David S. Ward tells Moviehole that a new film based on the hit 1989 baseball comedy is in the works, one that could reunite the original cast.

"... It's 20 years later, and Wild Thing comes out of retirement to work with this 19-year-old player. We've actually got three new characters in the new film. And if the new film is popular, they could carry the franchise on" says Ward.

Tom Berenger, Charlie Sheen Corbin Bernsen and Wesley Snipes starred in the original.

Ward admits Sheen is the only one he's spoken to so far about returning - "He's excited to do it if and when it happens. But he can't shoot it this year, because he's back doing Two and a Half Men but we could potentially shoot it next year - in his hiatus from the show".

All for it as long as we can forget Major League II and Major League: Back to the Minors ever existed

--The first film was a home run--the next 2 not so much....
