John McEnroe and Stephen Dorff Among New Cast Members Added to Dark Comedy THE TRAINER — GeekTyrant

Several new cast members have been added to the dark comedy feature The Trainer, including tennis star and actor John McEnroe (30 Rock, Ocean’s 8, Never Have I Ever), Stephen Dorff (Public Enemies, True Detective), Gina Gershon (Emily the Criminal), and Luka Sabbat (Grown-ish). They join previously cast star Vito Schnabel, who also wrote the original script with Jeff Solomon, and other actors Julia Fox, Steven Van Zandt and Taylour Paige.

The film heading into production tomorrow — after nearly a decade in development — is based on an original story by Schnabel. “It unfolds over eight days of sleep-deprived chaos and follows Jack (Schnabel), a down-on-his-luck fitness expert living with his mother in Los Angeles, who takes a maniacal swing at fame and fortune, trying to realize his version of the American dream.”

Details about the other actors’ characters have not yet been released. The Trainer is due to be released sometime in 2023.
