I am casting feature stars for my new film project about Red Sox great Bill Buckner called OUT FOR BUCKNER.

I am looking for a rugged and athletic actor who looks like the baseball player. A sort of Tom Selleck meets Sam Elliott.

Please forward you headshots and info to mitchmitchell24@hotmail.com

George Clooney has showed some interest in the film rights and I have Buckner attached.

See the front page story in THE BOSTON HERALD here:

OUT FOR BUCKNER is about Tony Tapler, a Boston radio personality that decides he is going to get rid of

"The Curse of The Bambino" by himself.

He is going to travel to Boise, Idaho, find Bill Buckner, and convince him to come back to Beantown to star in

a community theater version of NO, NO NANETTE.

This is the redemptive story of how Bill Buckner rises, phoenix-like, from the ash heap of a doomed baseball miscue to emerge as a resilient ex-athlete, a gamely father-figure, a composed friend, and a plucky theatre performer.

Who needs the Hall of Fame when you've got the chance to lead the Red Sox to their first World Series in 86 years?

Do you know the story behind 'The Curse of The Bambino'?

In 1919, after the Sox had won five out of the first 15 World Series, owner Harry Frazee sold Babe Ruth, the best player of all time, to the NY Yankees so he could finance a Broadway show called 'No, No Nanette.'

The rest is history. The Yankees went on to win 26 championships and the Red Sox finally won again in 2004 and 2007, giving them a total of seven rings.

This film will be an underground celebration of the victory.
