By Garth Franklin Monday August 1st 2005 10:27PM

Haley Joel Osment is making a return to movies, taking a starring role in the indie coming-of-age feature "Home of the Giants" says The Hollywood Reporter.

Set in an Indiana town that lives for basketball, the story follows a teenager (Osment) who idolizes one of the town's basketball stars. The teen and his best pal are befriended by the player, who ends up being anything but the hero they thought he was.

Rusty Gorman is writing and directing, while William R. Greenblatt and Dan Schalk are producing. This will be Osment's first film since 2003's "Second Hand Lions".

Thanks to 'Rocky'.
