Essential Viewing, Serpentine Creative, #Merky Films The official biopic of England soccer legend Ian Wright is in development, with #Merky Films to co-produce and Stormzy named as executive producer. The script was penned by Tom Wilton (“Muscle,” “Bump,” “A Love Letter to M”), who is attached to direct.
Wright was Arsenal’s second-top goal scorer and Crystal Palace’s Player of the Century, and appeared 33 times for England, playing against the likes of Beckham and Zidane, and facing injury setbacks that may have ended other careers.
