In another recent development it looks as though Mathew Broderick, star of Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Glory, and The Producers will play Chicago Ranger super utility man Matt Brooks. Mr. Broderick was not able to meet for an interview but he did pass on this message through his publicist:
"I've always wanted to do a sports film. In high school I had to give up athletic pursuits due to a knee injury I suffered playing football and soccer. In order to keep busy I took up acting, while still maintaining my enthusiasm for sports. I acquired fame by playing the coolest kid who ever lived. Now, the only roles I can seem to get are bleak, insecure men. I do find almost every character I play quite interesting, though. I love sports, baseball is America's greatest past time, now I get to make up for what I missed out on in high school."
