MGM has picked up the pitch
Flash from Cedric the Entertainer as a starring and producing vehicle for the comedic actor, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The project is described as a comedy with heart centering on Coach Levels (Cedric), who leads a group of athletes both on and off the playing field. He forms a tight bond with one of the kids -- a young urban thug named Andy -- and tries to teach him a lesson, only to wind up learning one himself.
