It appears that Disney is going with sports genre veteran Kevin Costner for their upcoming film McFarland, which will be directed by Niki Caro. Variety reports that this is going to happen and here is a synopsis from Variety:
Based on a true story, Costner will play a coach living in a predominantly Hispanic California town who creates a high school track team that must overcome social and physical hurdles to become champions during the 1980s.
Lately, Costner has been experiencing a career resurgence. I have to say, I am thoroughly enjoying what he has been doing. There is no doubt that the guy can act, it just felt like things went a little stale. Now with Hatfields & McCoys and Man Of Steel it appears that the actor is on another upswing. That being said, it looks as though Disney is making a smart choice in casting Costner.
What are some of your favorite Costner movies? What would you like to see him in?
Until next time…
