Josh Safdie is set to direct the feature, reuniting with A24, from a script he wrote with Ronald Bronstein.

While plot details are being kept mum, the movie is said to be loosely inspired by the life of ping pong player Marty Reisman, and will be a fictionalized film.

In addition to starring, Timothee is also listed as a producer, alongside screenwriters Josh and Ronald, Eli Bush, Anthony Katagas and A24.

For those that don’t know, Marty Reisman was known as the “Wizard of Table Tennis,” and he was a table tennis champion who started his career in Manhattan as a hustler, playing for bets and prize money. He won 22 major ping pong titles from 1946 to 2007 and won five bronze medals at the World Table Tennis Championships. At 67, Marty competed in the United States National Hardbat Championship and became the oldest player to win an open national competition in a ract sport.

He died in December 2012 at the age of 82.

Late last year, Gwyneth opened up about her break from acting and the one actor who could get her to return – hint: they’re not involved in the A24 movie at all!
