A movie about German F1 racing driver Michael Schumacher is in the works.
The 39-year-old, who has been world champion seven times, has been asked to play himself in the big screen version of his life story.
His agent Willi Weber told German magazine Bunte:
“A Hollywood producer is interested in the life of Michael Schumacher and a film would be called The Michael Schumacher Story, with him as the main actor.”
The Formula One star retired after the 2006 season and is currently acting as an advisor and test driver for Ferrari.
He played Schumix in the recent Asterix movie and voiced a Ferrari in animated Pixar film Cars.
