Here is another Brad Pitt news for you fans out there. Another movie developed for Brad Pitt is on the works. Steve Zaillian has signed on to adapt Michael Lewis’ nonfiction bestseller “Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game”. It has  David Frankel as its director and potentially Brad Pitt as its lead.

The story’s subject is Oakland A’s general manager Billy Beane, who assembled a contending baseball club on a shoestring budget by employing a sophisticated computer-based analysis to draft players.
