Having tackled the true story of Alan Turing in The Imitation Game , he will now be taking on baseball hero, Roger 'the Rocket' Clemens.
Red Sox pitcher Clemens, was known for his unhittable fastball which earned him his nickname.
The film chronicles the latter half of his professional career when his former trainer, Brian McNamee, claimed that the pitcher used steroids.
He was indicted on six felony counts involving perjury, false statements and obstruction of Congress, to which Clemens pleaded not guilty.
The former pitcher was eventually found not guilty on all counts in 2008, a year after he retired from baseball after 24 seasons.
Jeffrey Gelber and Ryan Belenzon have penned the script.
Schwarzman's upcoming projects include Eli Roth's Knock Knock and Gold starring Matthew McConaughey.
