Sean Penn is in negotiations to produce and star in a film based on the life of surfing icon Dorian "Doc" Paskowitz.
According to Variety, Alan and Gabe Polsky will also produce with Penn.
Paul Feldsher, who was a producer on the films "The Four Feathers" and "Waking Up in Reno," will write the screenplay.
Paskowitz became a cult hero for ditching a successful medical practice and hitting the road in a camper with his wife and nine kids. His family founded the first surf camp in the continental U.S. and is referred to as the "First Family of Surfing."
Paskowitz, who is 89, was the subject of Doug Pray's 2008 documentary "Surfwise."
Penn was last seen in 2008’s "Milk" which won him his second Best Actor Oscar.
