A Hollywood film producer is reportedly interested in turning Michael Schumacher's life story into a blockbuster - with the seven-time world champion himself in the starring role.
The most successful driver in formula one history's long time manager, Willi Weber, confirmed to the German news weekly Bunte that the offer has been made, but said an ultimate decision about the project has not been taken.
The 39-year-old former Jordan, Benetton and Ferrari racer's entire life would be the subject of the movie; including Schumacher's modest beginnings as the son of a bricklayer, his rise to grand prix superstardom and wealth, and his apparently idyllic life as a husband and father.
Schumacher has appeared in a couple of films already; as 'Schumix' in the recent Asterix feature, and with a voiceover in the popular children's animation 'Cars'.
