In lieu of doing the remake/remake of A STAR IS BORN, Clint Eastwood has decided to hop on board to star in TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE which is being made by his producing partner, Robert Lorenz.
Eastwood will take the lead as, “an aging baseball scout, who’s losing his sight, and heads on a last road trip to Atlanta with his daughter to scout a hotshot prospect.” Now it looks like they’ve found someone they want to play the Daughter.
Eastwood and Lorenz are in talks with Sandra Bullock for the part. There’s no word on when production will begin on the film.
Bullock seems to be taking on more serious roles lately with parts in THE BLIND SIDE and EXTREMELY LOUD AND INCREDIBLY CLOSE. She should do great opposite Eastwood.
