Feature Film About Tom Brady in the Works
Hollywood is making a movie about Tom Brady. It's from the makers of "Patriots Day," and it's going to be about the latter years of his career - particularly this past season with Deflategate and Super Bowl LI. I'm sure there will be a scene where Brady comes back to his alma mater and throws the ball around with Jim Harbaugh.
Matt Damon is way too short to play Brady, so I'm not sure who they're going to get.

You know, they actually need Goodell to play himself just so he can be hated in other mediums aside from league pressers and on any NFL affiliate. I am sure if you wrote the role in a very specific way, he would be all to happy to incriminate...errr.....play himself in such a film if it meant perceived glory to the league.

Pete Finebaum can play Goodell - it takes a douche to play a douche

What ever happened to that guy?
February 17th, 2017 at 8:42 AM ^
I read recently that he is a physical education teacher.
In response to the OP, Matt Damon could play Brady. They can make anyone look tall or short in movies these days.
February 16th, 2017 at 11:58 PM ^
Nah. They'll have to get the actor who played Dexter, Michael C. Hall.
February 17th, 2017 at 7:56 AM ^
The guy has bling!

Or maybe Matt Damon plays Brady, and then all the other actors are 5-feet or less so that he looks huge.

I knew someone else had to think it too. You waited almost two years to post, and I inadventently stole your thunder by replying to a post above you... my bad.

I'd say Christian Bale... skinny dude, tall enough I suppose. And A hair trigger temper, would be kind of a natural fit.
Also Michael Fassbender, can sell just about anything.
Viggo Mortensen looks A LOT like him, but I don't know if the mannerisms really match.
Matt Damon has done good work, but his face is so expressionless, I don't know.

I'm tired of Jim Rome
February 16th, 2017 at 11:01 PM ^
February 16th, 2017 at 11:20 PM ^
to play Drew Henson.
February 16th, 2017 at 11:33 PM ^
Tom Clancy movies.

It'd be pretty funny if it took a hard left in the middle and became a gang banger movie, featuring one Aaron Hernandez...

will be known as. The Great Tom Brady.

watching a movie about his life outside of football would be sleep-inducing.
February 17th, 2017 at 6:38 AM ^
Well, unless they got Gisele to play herself and, you know ...
February 17th, 2017 at 6:06 AM ^
A espn 30 30 is nice but we want Hollywood baby a full length motion picture. I want Academy awards, I want Oscars and Red Carpets baby. Clint Eastwood directing or maybe Opie, Steven Spielberg. Nothing but top notch for The Great Tom Brady. The .greatest QB to have ever put on a uniform period.
February 17th, 2017 at 6:21 AM ^
Who plays his wife?
February 17th, 2017 at 8:14 AM ^
February 17th, 2017 at 7:14 AM ^
I just hope it's not Taylor Kisch to play Brady.
February 17th, 2017 at 8:07 AM ^
Just don't ask the opinion of the court room artist from the Deflategatre trial. I belive he is Goodell's cousin.
February 17th, 2017 at 8:57 AM ^
I don't think it will be Matt Damon. His career may tank after this Great Wall movie.
February 17th, 2017 at 9:27 AM ^
This movie is going to just be awful, right?
February 17th, 2017 at 10:32 AM ^
How about at least one college scene? Like maybe the Northwestern game his senior year?
I want to know who would have played me sitting in the stands watching him throw touchdown passes to David Terrell.
