Trailer for Disney's MILLION DOLLAR ARM with Jon Hamm

Disney has released a trailer for their new inspirational true story sports film, Million Dollar Arm. It seems like it's been awhile since we've seen one of these movies from Disney, and it looks exactly like what we would expect it to be. If the movie does well, maybe the studio will start making more of them again.

The movie comes from director Craig Gillespie, and it stars Jon Hamm, Bill Paxton, Lake Bell, Suraj Sharma, Aasif Mandvi, Madhur Mittal, Pitobash Tripathy, and Alan Arkin.

Based on a true story, the film follows JB Bernstein (Hamm), a once-successful sports agent who now finds himself edged out by bigger, slicker competitors. He and his partner Aash (Mandvi) will have to close their business down for good if JB doesn’t come up with something fast. Late one night, while watching cricket being played in India on TV, JB comes up with an idea so radical it just might work. Why not go to there and find the next baseball pitching sensation? Setting off for Mumbai with nothing but a gifted but cantankerous scout (Arkin) in tow, JB stages a televised, nationwide competition called “Million Dollar Arm” where 40,000 hopefuls compete before two 18-year-old finalists, Rinku and Dinesh (Sharma, Mittal), emerge as winners. JB brings them back to the United States to train with legendary pitching coach Tom House (Paxton). The goal: get the boys signed to a major league team.

The movie comes out on May 18th, 2014!
