German racing driver Michael Schumacher has denied reports that he will play himself in an upcoming biopic.
His agent Willi Weber last week revealed that the former F1 star had been approached to appear in the big screen version of his life story. However, Schumacher said he does not have space in his schedule to commit to a movie, telling autosport: “We have had some requests in this direction to film my career, but I’m probably too busy and too active to find time for this. So right now it’s not something I wish to do.” The 39-year-old retired after the 2006 season and is currently acting as an advisor and test driver for Ferrari. It was recently reported that Bruce Willis is in line to play commentator Murray Walker in the film.
Michael Schumacher and Bruce Willis will be a great event. Waiting for a film.
