Arkin Scouts The "Million Dollar Arm"

Alan Arkin is set to join the baseball drama biopic Million Dollar Arm says Variety.


The film is based on the true story of how sports agent J.B. Bernstein (Jon Hamm) discovered professional pitchers Rinku Singh and Dinesh Patel through a reality show he staged in India using cricket players.

Arkin will play a retired baseball scout.

Tom McCarthy ("Win Win") wrote the script from which Craig Gillespie's going to call action.

Mark Ciardi, Gordon Gray, Joe Roth and Palak Patel will produce the film.

Shooting begins next month in Mumbai and Atlanta.
