Haley Joel Osment may have wowed the world with his great performance in The Sixth Sense and then he bored the hell out of us in A.I., since then he got a little bit of acclaim with the little seen Secondhand Lions, but now he is set to star in the coming-of-age feature Home of the Giants.
The film is set in an Indiana town that lives for basketball, the story follows a teenager (Osment) who idolizes one of the town’s basketball stars. The teen and his best pal are befriended by the player, who ends up being anything but the hero they thought he was.
The story was written and will be directed by Rusty Gorman who is bringing Osment back to the bigscreen for the first time since 2003’s Secondhand Lions.
