A pingpong “social club” chain backed by Academy Award-wining actress Susan Sarandon is seeking a location in South Boston’s bustling Fort Point neighborhood.

Win by 2 LLC is in lease negotiations to open a franchised SPiN Galactic club on Summer Street. Plans filed with the city call for 10 pingpong tables, a DJ booth, two bars, lounge seating, a commercial kitchen to serve lunch and dinner and lockers at the 250-254 Summer St. locale.

“We are committed to going into Boston and opening up a club,” Win by 2 principal James Shubert said. “We have explored a few spots, but we don’t have a specific deal done. We’re in the process of due diligence.”

Shubert, who lives in St. Louis and Naples, Fla., was on business in New York with his wife when boredom landed him at SPiN instead of going shopping or to a museum. “I became friendly with the ownership of SPiN, and I have different business investments around the country, so I thought it would be fun and profitable,” he said.

The star of films including “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” “Thelma & Louise” and “Dead Man Walking,” Sarandon is a co-founder and managing partner of SPiN with boyfriend Jonathan Bricklin, Franck Raharinosy and Andrew Gordon. The New York club opened in 2009, and there are now locations in Milwaukee, Toronto and Los Angeles. Plans also call for one in Dubai.

Sarandon, 66, is a pingpong “propagandist,” she said in an interview tied to the L.A. club’s opening last week at Andre Balazs’ Standard Hotel.

“We’re a growing brand,” SPiN spokeswoman Cassie Mead said. “Boston is on our list of locations we’re really interested in expanding to.”

SPiN memberships range from $45 to $65 per month at the other locations, but nonmembers can also reserve tables. Membership benefits vary, but include one free hour of play per month, and half-off regular rates for subsequent table rentals.

The company also operates SPiN Social, a pingpong tournament and social network for pingpong enthusiasts, and plans to launch an iPhone application later this year, according to its website.

Win by 2 is eyeing the Summer Street site known as the Channel Building, which is owned by Synergy Investment & Development. The Hub real estate investment firm declined comment. Synergy bought the eight-story building in January for $25 million. Current tenants include Morrison Mahoney LLP, SLAM Collaborative Inc. and Argo Group.
