Kelly McCormack and Priscilla Delgado are joining the cast of Amazon's series adaptation of Penny Marshall's 1992 movie A League of Their Own. According to Deadline, the streamer has given the show an hourlong pilot order.
McCormack of "Killjoys" fame and Delgado, known for Julieta, will co-star opposite D'Arcy Carden, Abbi Jacobson and Gbemisola Ikumelo.
While McCormack will star as Jess, a talented pitcher who is unafraid to speak her mind, Delgado is set to play Izzy, a vivacious girl who is probably the youngest player to try out for the Rockford Peaches.
Like the original film, the series will also focus on a women's baseball team during World War II. Jacobson will also write and executive produce the project along with Will Graham. Sony Pictures Television will produce the project.
