Caro, best known for directing “Mulan” for Disney, will helm the feature film, based on a New York Times magazine article.
Titled “The Fight For Gender Equality In One of the Most Dangerous Sports on Earth”, the article, penned by Daniel Duane, was about female surfers Bianca Valenti, Andrea Moller, Paige Alms and Keala Kennelly fighting for the right to compete in big-wave contests.
Becky Johnston is writing the screenplay that will follow four women who form a powerful bond as they surf the world’s most dangerous spots and fight for equality in big wave surfing.
