What happened to the Jamie Vardy film ?

[marcymarc666]

It suddenly went very quiet, have they scrapped it, is it still in the pipeline, anybody know ? Would be a real shame if they have because it would have showcased our most amazing year.

Doubt it'll happen for some time, those sorts of films are usually done decades after the event. 

[marcymarc666]

It just feels like the momentum has gone  now.

[davelcfc100]

Isn’t it obvious? They are waiting for him to score the winner int he World Cup final before they start filming.

Didn't get a move to a 'big club' and ruined the narrative - "how can it be a happy ending? He's still at bloody Leicester!"

[Stevosevic]

It will happen, even if it's more of a story about Leicester.

 

How could you not write a film about what we did?

[marcymarc666]

If it means not having the bloke from one direction and vinny Jones as nigel pearson I'm happy to wait a couple more years  !

[Ted Maul]

It will happen when he retires, I assume. Be weird doing it whilst he's still playing at the top level.

[Ian Nacho]

Probably makes more sense once he's retired. Potentially in a decade or so.

Producing a movie involves a lot of time, money and patience. The title-winning season is only two years away, and from first idea to production, it can take between four to ten years before it hits the screen - including countless script re-writes, securing finances, assembling the cast and crew, finding the appropriate shooting locations, etc. etc.

 

The idea still has to get green light - might as well be that they've binned the concept completely by now.

 

If it goes through, the picture won't be out before 2020.

[Spudulike]

Don't suppose that we'll get the statues etc until they've all retired either.

 

Still waiting for the Banks/Shilton statue

[Dr The Singh]

Its in progress, Stormy Daniels has been chosen as Mrs Vardy.

[urban.spaceman]

Last time I looked the production looked something like this:

 

Adrien Butchart - head writer, producer. Made Goal films.

Simon Egan and Gareth Ellis-Unwin - producers. Won an Oscar for the Kings Speech

Paul Tamasy and Eric Johnson - screenwriters. Nominated for an Oscar for The Fighter. Also did Patriot's Day.

 

Not sure what's happening with it. Probably waiting to see what happens at the WC

[Countryfox]

 

Still no reply from Wilfred Bramble about playing the lead role ....  

[Fox92]

Dunno why it's such a thing anyway plenty of players have risen from non league.

More chance of it being Titus Bramble.

Great to hear people in 1000s of years time will know who Jamie Vardy is.

[Tuna]

Probably canned it.

 

It was bound to be shit anyway.

[NorthfieldsFox]

They couldn’t find an inflatable dinosaur for the final game

And won the premier league with a complete underdog of a team?

They've struggled to find an actor who can run that fast so the production has been handed over to the makers of the Benny Hill show. Expect a soundtrack of a faster version of Post Horn Gallop accompanying scenes of Jamie being chased by centre halves, nurses, nuns and assorted totty. 

Would love it if Kane's scenes about us being dunder dressure, sorry, under pressure came with authentic diction and subtitles.

Plenty of time for us to win it gain then.

The underdog part is irrelevant if it’s about the player. Pretty sure Ian Wright won a title.

Says 'Tuna' 

[ARTY_FOX]

If his misses wass making the same sort of demands she was that cancelled their planned tv program then I imagine that it has been canned.
