The film is directed by Josh Greenbaum and features Jake Johnson as Dusty Boyd, a former tennis prodigy who has fallen into coaching unruly kids at his father Chuck’s suburban country club. Seeking his father’s approval, Dusty is pulled into learning how to play pickleball and coming to terms with the sport and his own change in circumstances. The movie also stars Ed Harris and Mary Steenburgen, alongside Ben Stiller, who is credited as a producer, as well as Chloe Fineman, Christine Taylor, Patton Oswalt, Martin Kove, Chris Parnell and Aaron Chen.
