New Line has given the green light to the Will Ferrell comedy Semi-Pro, set in the world of 1970s pro basketball.

New Line executive VP Kent Alterman will make his directorial debut on the project, in which Ferrell will portray Jackie Moon, the flamboyant owner-player-coach of the fictional Flint, Mich., Tropics in the final year of the American Basketball Association.

Woody Harrelson is aboard to co-star, says Variety.

Scot Armstrong (Old School) is writing the screenplay about a former benchwarmer from the NBA who returns to his ragtag team for a shot at redemption. Shooting is expected to start early next year.
