Real Madrid star and former Manchester United player Cristiano Ronaldo has set conquering the entertainment industry as his next goal with two new TV projects.
On Wednesday, it was announced that Ronaldo will follow in the footsteps of another sports legend, Tom Brady, with a series for Facebook Watch. However, unlike Gotham Chopra’s documentary “Tom vs Time,” this series will be scripted.
Written “Memphis Beat” duo Liz Garcia and Josh Harto, the untitled drama centers on a high school girls soccer team in upstate New York. Ronaldo will serve as executive producer on the series, which hails from wiip, the independent studio led by former ABC boss Paul Lee.
