Jeremy Lin Movie ‘Linsanity’ Documentary in Theaters Oct. 4

NBA star Jeremy Lin is getting a documentary movie made on his rise to superstardom as the polarizing figure of Linsanity.

The movie will be playing in Boston, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, and a few other select cities beginning on Oct. 4, reported TheUrbanTwist.com.

“Linsanity” already debuted at the Sundance film festival this summer.

“Film follows Lin’s life from his childhood in Palo Alto, Calif., to his meteoric ascent to stardom in early 2012 with the New York Knicks in the National Basketball Assn., giving rise to the term ‘Linsanity.’ The film was an official selection at South by Southwest this year and screens Wednesday at the opening night of the Asian American International Film Festival at Asia Society in New York City,” said Dave McNary of Variety.

The movie began filming in 2010 when the point guard was in Harvard and goes until he got his big contract with the Houston Rockets.
