A League of Their Own is a half-hour comedy infusing the warmth, humor and DNA of the classic film, while taking a contemporary spin on the stories of the women surrounding the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League.
Amazon’s upcoming series adaptation of A League of Their Own will feature a new cast of characters unrelated to those previously portrayed by Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, Madonna, Lori Petty, Jon Lovitz, David Strathairn, Garry Marshall, and Bill Pullman in Penny Marshall’s 1992 hit film.
“I would say..there will be a group of new characters but some nods to the original,” said Amazon TV Co-Head Vernon Sanders (via Deadline).
The series dives deeper into the issues facing the country while following a ragtag team of women figuring themselves out while fighting to realize their dreams of playing professional baseball.
