Variety has learned that a TV series based on the 1993 film The Sandlot is being developed by Disney+. The show will take place in 1984, and follow the children of the movie’s original characters.
Back in February, The Sandlot director and co-writer David Mickey Evans appeared on The Rain Delay podcast where he teased the possibility of a sequel to the cult classic film coming to the small screen. Without delving too deep into specifics Evans stated that “he has sold a pitch for a television series sequel to the original movie that will bring all the original cast members back.” At the time, he only said that the show was sold to a streaming service, but wouldn’t reveal which one.
