Oklahoma Screenwriter To Adapt Cherokee Themed Will To Win Movie.

Kirkpatrick & Kinslow Productions has hired screenwriter Aaron Fulkerson, who is Cherokee, to write the movie adaptation from the Jim Stovall novel Will To Win.  

The Will To Win movie is a female-centric, high school “teen angst” baseball drama, featuring a Cherokee storyline with Will Rogers. Mr. Fulkerson says “the high school baseball story is layered with Cherokee tradition along with a modern aesthetic.”  Additionally “the opportunity to bring the iconic Will Rogers to current generations in a way not seen, is an extraordinary responsibility.” Executive Producer Andy Kinslow said “Mr. Fulkerson possesses an impressive ability to connect story to the iconic Will Rogers, while respectfully showcasing Cherokee traditions and the Nation’s current, modern existence."

Kirkpatrick & Kinslow has optioned the book rights from author Jim Stovall, to produce the movie.
