Hollywood Movie Moneyball 2011 Watch Trailer Preview Story Cast And Crew
Storyline:
The story of Oakland A's general manager Billy Beane's successful attempt to put together a baseball club on a budget by employing computer-generated analysis to draft his players.
Movie Plot Summary:
Based on a true story, Moneyball is a movie for anybody who has ever dreamed of taking on the system. Brad Pitt stars as Billy Beane, the general manager of the Oakland A’s and the guy who assembles the team, who has an epiphany: all of baseball’s conventional wisdom is wrong. Forced to reinvent his team on a tight budget, Beane will have to outsmart the richer clubs. The onetime jock teams with Ivy League grad Peter Brand (Jonah Hill) in an unlikely partnership, recruiting bargain players that the scouts call flawed, but all of whom have an ability to get on base, score runs, and win games. It’s more than baseball, it’s a revolution – one that challenges old school traditions and puts Beane in the crosshairs of those who say he’s tearing out the heart and soul of the game.
Movie Info:
Moneyball is an upcoming drama film directed by Bennett Miller, starring Brad Pitt, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Robin Wright, Jonah Hill, Chris Pratt and Casey Bond. It is based on the true story of Billy Beane, general manager of the Oakland Athletics, and his attempt to create a competitive team despite Oakland's unfavorable financial situation.
The film, based on the 2003 book of the same name written by Michael Lewis, is set for release on September 23, 2011.[2] The film will be featured at the Toronto's 2011 International Film Festival.[3]
The story centers on Billy Beane and his arrival as Oakland's general manager. Through analysis and a new, non-traditional sabermetric approach to scouting players, Beane attempts to create a competitive baseball team at a fraction of the cost of the large market teams.
The film's script was originally written by Stan Chervin, and Steven Soderbergh replaced David Frankel as director. Soderbergh declined due to a scheduling conflict with his film Contagion.[5]
On June 19, 2009, days before filming was set to begin, Sony put the picture on hold.[6] The script called for elements considered non-traditional for a sports movie, such as interviews with real-life players, and as a result Soderbergh was let go. He was replaced by Bennett Miller,[7] and Aaron Sorkin rewrote the script, which was subsequently rewritten by Steven Zaillian.[7] Also, the role of Paul DePodesta, formerly to be portrayed by Demetri Martin, was recast, and Jonah Hill was picked for the role.
