Sports agent JB Bernstein came up with the idea to scout India for major league pitching talent — an idea so inspired that the film Million Dollar Arm was made about it. In the movie, Bernstein is played by Jon Hamm as he scouts pitching prospects Rinku (Suraj Sharma) and Dinesh (Madhur Mattel), who navigate new lands and learn from one another.
Answering fan questions on uInterview, Berstein explained how the film, though not a documentary, mirrored his life. "I know most movies take true stories and take pieces of the story and build the movie around it. But really all the major scenes in the movie pretty much happened," Bermstein told uInterview. "So even in the areas where they changed things, they were inspired by what really happened."
Berstein was also thrilled, if surprised, with the casting of Hamm. "Everybody came and said who they thought should play me in the movie and, trust me, before this movie, Jon Hamm was not the name that came up for me," Bernstein said. "I would get Steve Carrell or Adam Sandler."
