Ready for another biopic? Universal Pictures is set to produce the life of Joe Namath into a feature film. According to reports, Jake Gyllenhaal is set to play the football star. The pic will tell the story of how a kid from Beaver Falls, Pa became the first football player to achieve rock-star status.
Jake is a pretty hot commodity these days, whether it’s dating Reese Witherspoon or his movie lineup for the next year. Jake is currently shooting the Jim Sheridan-directed "Brothers" with Tobey Maguire and Natalie Portman and will follow that by teaming with Doug Liman on an untitled project at DreamWorks that revolves around a moon expedition.
