Vardy reveals details about upcoming Leicester City movie

Leicester City forward Jamie Vardy has revealed details about a feature film based on his team's underdog triumph in the 2015-16 Premier League season, focusing on his rise from Fleetwood Town to glory at the highest level.

"It's happening," Vardy said, confirming a film was being planned, according to Phil McNulty of BBC Sport. "It's out in 2017 from what I've been told. I think they're just getting all the actors sorted.

"I'm not sure on the title yet. I've not been able to get on the phone and talk to them. I'm just concentrating on England at the moment."

The big question on everyone's minds: who's playing Vardy?

"I'm not at liberty to say," the England striker answered.

While Vardy's on-screen story is a year or two away, his current focus is on releasing a book chronicling his rise to the top in the world of football.

"I wasn't thinking about doing one," Vardy said. "Then I had a chat with my agent and we thought it was a good time to do one, because a lot of people don't know exactly what I've had to go through to get to this position. So it'll be good for everyone to have it out there, from my own views."
