Michael Schumacher to become movie star
Michael Schumacher is all set to become a movie actor.
The 37-year-old Ferrari driver, along with football stars David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane, will appear in the new film 'Asterix and the Olympic Games', based on the comic book.
Filming of the movie, to star Gerard Depardieu, will kick off in June, in Valencia -- home of the famous Spanish F1 test track.
With a reported budget of nearly $100m, the movie - a joint production of France, Spain and Germany - is apparently the biggest ever in European history.
