Aside from the fact that they're all certified gay icons in the realm of pop culture, they all starred in director Penny Marshall's 1992 sports comedy A League of Their Own. It also stars Tom Hanks (Cast Away) and Lori Petty (Orange Is the New Black), among others. Article continues below advertisement
The memorable film follows the triumphs (and hilarious failures) of the first professional women's baseball league — the team deemed the Rockford Peaches —in the midst of World War II circa 1943.

It's truly a home run. With fantastic one-liners and a cherished cast, it was only a matter of time before the modern streaming service era adapted it. Coming to Amazon Prime this summer is the series adaptation of A League of Their Own from creators Will Graham and Abbi Jacobson.

The show takes a deeper look at race and sexuality, following the journey of a whole new ensemble of characters as they carve their own paths towards the field, both in the League and outside of it."
That's right, folks, it's going to be even gayer this time around. Article continues below advertisement
So, based on the synopsis, the series is going to be more progressive and current, but Abbi Jacobson detailed that there are a “couple nods” to the film in the show, per The Hollywood Reporter.

Melanie Fields’ character Joe is a little bit of a Rosie visual,” she relayed. “In the pilot, we nod to the movie the most, and there are nods as you keep going.”
And the same goes for the series' portrayal of Coach Casey “Dove” Porter — who's played by Parks and Recreation favorite Nick Offerman. “In some places where you go to watch the film, the description is that it’s about a washed-up player who goes to coach a women’s league, and it’s like, ‘That’s what this film is about?'" Abbi explained, clearly a superfan of the movie.
