James Van Der Beek has revealed that his is embarking on his first foray into screenwriting with a script about baseball.
The former Dawson's Creek star has been out of the spotlight for several years waiting for the right acting part to come along, but in the meantime has started work on his own project.
He told MovieHole: “I’m writing something at the moment - a baseball film. Love baseball. My dad played professionally before I was born. It’s about a guy who realises his dreams of playing in the major leagues, and at the same time, he falls in love. It’s about trying to reconcile the two."
The star continued: "It’s the first thing I’ve written, and actually handed in, and gotten comments on - just ironing out some kinks right now, and it’s going to out to producers in the next few weeks."
"I’ve also got another idea for a film, and I’m in the outline stages of that right now. It’s a way of creating your own destiny. You can hang around and wait for the right script to come along, or you can go ahead and get onto it yourself. As long as you believe one hundred percent in the scenario, I believe it’s worth doing," he added.
