Another Grisham book to big screen

John Grisham's latest novel, Playing For Pizza (Doubleday, $21.95), which came out last fall, may be made into a movie, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Phoenix Pictures picked up the movie rights to the non-legal-themed book about a has-been NFL quarterback who gains a new perspective on life when his agent lands him a gig playing with a semi-pro team in Italy.
