| Elton Brand, Film Producer
In his spare time, Elton Brand has started a new career in the film industry. Might as well make the most of living in Hollywood, lol.
From the NY Daily News: Quote:
Brand wants to talk showbiz. He wants to discuss "Rescue Dawn," his new Vietnam War flick. The film, starring Christian Bale, opens in select theaters on Wednesday.
Before "Rescue Dawn" became a feature film, Brand first saw it as the documentary "Little Dieter Needs to Fly." "They wanted to do a feature film," he says. "Werner Herzog was attached to the project - I did some research on him, and he's a great director. And they already had Christian Bale. ...
"I mean, we would be making a film with Batman."
Brand talks film as easily as he talks foul shots. In the NBA, the former Duke star has carved a niche as a low-post threat. But away from the hardwood, Brand is discovering a second career: filmmaking.
