John Daly on the big screen? According to a report, Jonah Hill is set to star as the ‘Bad Boy of Golf’
John Daly is arguably the most interesting man in the history of golf. The beers, the cigarettes, the god-given talent and his impeccable mullet.
Now, his story is set to be told on the big screen.
According to a report from Above the Line, movie superstar Jonah Hill, known for roles in “Wolf of Wall Street,” “Moneyball” and “Superbad,” will portray Daly in an upcoming biopic.
The film will dive into the “excesses, scandals and athletic achievements” of the two-time major champion, according to ATL.
The 56-year-old won the 1991 PGA Championship at Crooked Stick and the 1995 Open Championship at the Old Course. In total, he took home five PGA Tour titles.
