In a surprising turn of events, football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has announced that he has collaborated with acclaimed director Matthew Vaughn on two feature films, leading to speculation that these could be connected to the Kick-Ass franchise.
Ronaldo, a man of footballing fame, has shattered numerous records throughout his illustrious career, earning a reputation as one of the greatest players ever. His record of 136 goals for the Portuguese national team stands unmatched, and he has also accomplished significant milestones including five Ballon d’Or awards and five Champions League titles.
As he approaches the later stages of his football career, Ronaldo is venturing into new territories, including media with the launch of his UR-Cristiano YouTube channel in 2024, amassing over a billion followers. His latest step into the film industry has sparked excitement among fans.
Ronaldo and Matthew Vaughn announce new movie studio
On social media, Ronaldo shared the news of his partnership with director Matthew Vaughn to establish a new film studio named UR-MARV. In an unusual twist, they have already completed two films under this new venture.
The studio is characterized as an “independent joint venture film studio embracing innovative technology while honoring cinematic traditions.”
In his announcement, Ronaldo expressed excitement about this new phase in his career, stating, “This is an exciting chapter for me as I look to new ventures in business.”
Vaughn praised Ronaldo’s achievements on the field, saying, “He’s created stories that I could not have imagined, and I look forward to crafting inspiring films with him – he’s a real-life superhero.”
This is not Vaughn’s first experience working with athletes; he once launched the film career of Vinnie Jones and featured David Beckham in a cameo for his film King Arthur.
Why mystery movies could be connected to Kick-Ass
Reports indicate that Ronaldo and Vaughn have “financed and produced two action films together” and are preparing to embark on a third installment in the same series, with announcements regarding the first release expected soon.
While new projects are certainly a possibility, speculations about their connection to a potential Kick-Ass trilogy have emerged. Vaughn has hinted at a revival of the franchise, collaborating with Danny Walters—an experienced gymnast and stuntman—for the upcoming films.
The initial film in this planned trilogy, entitled School Fight, has already been filmed, and its sequel—aptly named The Stuntman—has reportedly also finished production. There are rumors circulating that the third film may reboot the beloved Kick-Ass series.
Given the timing and the particulars involved, it’s hard to dismiss the notion that School Fight and The Stuntman could indeed be linked to this venture. As developments unfold, further news about these exciting projects will be shared.
