Ben Stiller to Star in Pickleball Movie!
We have some amazing news for fans of the fastest-growing sport in the United States! Including my brother and his pal, one of the Pickleball goats, best floor-guy and realtor in the business, “The MattMan”!
So, Ben Stiller is making a Pickleball movie, titled “The Dink”! Which sounds similar to his blockbuster comedy “Dodgeball”, but this time he’s the good guy…I think.
The film follows a washed-up tennis pro trying to save his club by doing something he never expected to do; play pickleball.
It will also feature former American tennis star Andy Roddick as well as Jake Johnson, Mary Steenburgen and Ed Harris.
