LOS ANGELES -- The film 'Don't Look Up' is up for four Oscars, including Best Original Screenplay. The concept for the story was a collaboration between two Pennsylvania natives: Malvern's Adam McKay and Abington's David Sirota."I'm drinking from my Charles Barkley mug," Sirota said"That's a picture of me and Charles Barkley from 1986."
In 1985, Sirota and Bradley Cooper both played for the East Abington Little League Team. This year they are both nominated for an Oscar. "There's a named character of me who wears a Sixers jersey in the show," Sirota laughed, of his first brush with stardom. "I said it really does feel like there's an asteroid headed towards Earth, and nobody cares," he said.Now, their script and the film are heading to the Oscars.Besides that Oscar nod, Sirota says he and McKay also share a love of Action News.
