It's been for-ev-ver since The Sandlot came out — 26 years to be exact — and now the cast is getting back together for a television reboot of the cult classic.

The Sandlot, released in 1993 but set in 1962, followed a group of baseball-loving kids as they experienced the joys of summer. In an interview with the Rain Delay podcast, writer-director David Mickey Evans revealed that a series about the characters has been picked up.
