Film (2026). The Dink follows washed up former tennis prodigy Dusty Boyd (Jake Johnson), who has been reduced to coaching unruly children at his father Chuck’s (Ed Harris) suburban country club.

He not only tries pickleball but, thanks in part to his enchanting new partner, Candace (Mary Steenburgen), he finds himself actually enjoying it.

Ultimately, Dusty is drawn into a desperate battle for the future of the club, his father’s affection and his very identity.
