Tom Brady led the New England Patriots to six Super Bowl victories, and now his storied career with the team will be dramatized for the screen.
Deadline reports that Oscar-nominated screenwriters Paul Tamasy & Eric Johnson — who wrote the film “The Fighter” — are developing “The Patriot Way”, a scripted limited series based on the bestselling book 12: The Inside Story of Tom Brady’s Fight for Redemption, by Casey Sherman and Dave Wedge. “The Patriot Way” will tell the true story of Brady’s journey from sixth-round draft pick to his legendary run with the Patriots.
In addition, the series will also touch on the various controversies to dog the team during Brady’s tenure as quarterback, including Aaron Hernandez’s murder trial, the Spygate and Deflategate scandals, and Brady’s clashes with coach Bill Belichick.
