Last seen in 'The Karate Kid,' Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson is set to headline a sports film called 'From The Rough.'
The drama is inspired by the life of Dr. Catana Starks, the first female head coach of an NCAA Division I men's golf team at Tennessee State University.
Henson will play a fictionalized version of Starks named Cassandra Turner, who parlays a successful stint as coach of the women's swim team at a historically black college into a shot at building the men's golf team. With available black players scarce, Turner scours Europe, Australia and Asia for hidden talents and constructs a uniquely multi-racial team.
Filming begins in New Orleans in early October.
Henson will next star with Orlando Bloom in 'The Good Doctor' and in the Tom Hanks-directed Universal comedy 'Larry Crowne.'
