Richard Linklater is making another baseball movie.

And since some of his best movies involve baseball, this is good.

Richard Linklater is casting for That’s What I’m Talking About, the baseball-themed film he’ll make next. I’m told he has offered the three leads to these actors: Glee’s Blake Jenner, Teen Wolf’s Tyler Hoechlin, and 22 Jump Street’s Wyatt Russell. They’ve each got an offer to play one of the lead baseball players.

This one is set in 1980, and a college freshman moves into the baseball house at his college and experiences a fraternity like lifestyle with his hard partying teammates.

Wyatt Russell is the son of Kurt Russell (actor, former minor league player and owner) and the grandson of Bing Russell (actor, minor league player and owner who was the focus of The Battered Bastards of Baseball documentary).
