Cristiano Ronaldo makes a surprising career shift as the Manchester United icon embarks on a "new chapter." The football legend has teamed up with British filmmaker Matthew Vaughn to launch a new film studio together.
Ronaldo is stepping into an exciting new role by collaborating with Vaughn to create a trilogy of action films. Vaughn, an acclaimed director, has referred to the former Manchester United star as "a real-life superhero," while Ronaldo describes this venture as an "exciting new chapter."
In a social media announcement, Ronaldo shared details about their partnership: "Cristiano Ronaldo loves movies; Matthew Vaughn loves sports - and they both appreciate a good story. Both have been disruptive champions in their respective fields and are now merging the worlds of sports and storytelling with the launch of UR MARV, an independent film studio that embraces innovative technology while respecting tradition." Reflecting on this new endeavor, Ronaldo stated, "This is an exciting chapter for me as I explore new business ventures."
Vaughn added, "Cristiano has created stories on the pitch that I could never have imagined, and I look forward to making inspiring films with him - he's a real-life superhero."
The duo has already financed and produced two action films through their UR MARV project and is set to begin work on a third. Fans and film enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating the premiere date for their first release.
Ronaldo is no stranger to the spotlight, having been featured in a 2015 biopic produced by the same team behind films about pop icon Amy Winehouse and F1 legend Ayrton Senna. In 2014, he was the subject of a Spanish documentary titled "Cristiano Ronaldo: The World at His Feet," narrated by Benedict Cumberbatch. However, this will be his first venture into fictional filmmaking.
Meanwhile, Vaughn boasts an impressive resume as the director and producer of popular films such as "Layer Cake," "Kingsman: The Secret Service," and "Argylle," which features a star-studded cast including Dua Lipa, John Cena, and Samuel L. Jackson.
