The rookie who took the 2020 MLB playoffs by storm is getting a movie made about his life.
There is so much more to Randy Arozarena‘s life than just being stellar during the 2020 World Series. We are all finding out about him now and he really does deserve a movie.
“Baseball stardom is only a part of the Arozarena story, having escaped Cuba on a makeshift boat, landing in Mexico knowing absolutely no one and starting a new life there before making his way to the U.S. and playoff baseball heroics.”
– Wonderfilm
Now, who will play Arozarena and his other teammates? Can’t wait for the release, Wonderfilm said it is slated for next year.
