Kirkpatrick & Kinslow Options Rights To Jim Stovall Book For Newest Movie Will To Win.

Will To Win is a female-centric, high school “teen angst” baseball drama, featuring a Cherokee storyline with Will Rogers.

The main character (Sky Forest) is a Cherokee teenage girl attending Will Rogers High School, while she is raised by her traditional grandmother after her parents were both killed in a car crash. Because of budget cuts, Sky’s favorite sport, girl’s softball, is eliminated. Sky was planning on a softball scholarship to attend college, so this hits her hard. While doing research for a paper about Will Rogers, Sky starts to learn about him and he becomes real to her in her imagination. Through his wisdom and guidance she tries out for the boys baseball team, and turns out to be a remarkable player. As the story unfolds, Will Rogers continues to provide guidance to Sky as she deals with being a girl on the baseball team, being a modern day teenager in a Cherokee world, and dealing with teenage angst, romance, and hi-jinx as a senior in high school.
