The Tom Brady Story Is Getting A Book/Movie Deal

The men who brought the story of Lowell boxer Mickey Ward to the big screen with "The Fighter" now want to do the same for the same for New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.

Writers Paul Tamasy and Eric Johnson and journalist David Wedge are now working on a book and movie project about Brady, Deadline reported. The book will detail the rise of Brady and his triumphs and will touch on controversies such as Deflategate.

It was a pretty good week for Patriots getting movies. The Hollywood Reporter reported that the rights to Malcolm Butler's life story was sold and will be adopted into a move called "The Secondary."

No word on what Brady's book and movie will be called.
