Earlier today, the Toronto Film Festival Film line-up was released and we’re pleased to see Brad Pitt’s new movie, Moneyball in there. We’ve had a trailer and a poster for the movie but now we get to see some images. Moneyball which sees Pitt as a baseball Manager doing his best to get his struggling team out of difficulties.
Moneyball is directed by Bennett Miller and also stars Kathryn Morris, Jonah Hill, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Robin Wright. Stan Chervin adapted the book Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game by Michael. M. Lewis before Aaron Sorkin was drafted in to rewrite the script.
Synopsis: Bennett Miller’s follow-up to 2005’s Capote stars Brad Pitt as Billy Beane, the Oakland Athletics’ general manager whose unorthodox approach to fielding a team had a major impact on the game. Jonah Hill and Phillip Seymour Hoffman co-star in this clever and compelling work of sports realism.
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.
Moneyball hits the UK 4th November and the US 23rd September.
