At age 40, football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo remains a dominant force on the pitch — but he’s already setting the stage for a bold second act beyond the game. His latest move into film production, through a partnership with acclaimed British filmmaker Matthew Vaughn, marks a dynamic new chapter in his multifaceted career.
Their joint venture, UR-MARV, is a new action film studio that aims to blend the adrenaline of sports with cinematic storytelling. Vaughn, known for directing iconic hits like X-Men: First Class, Kingsman: The Secret Service, and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, brings years of industry expertise to the project.

In a recent statement reported by The Goal, Ronaldo expressed his excitement for the partnership:

Vaughn reciprocated the admiration, calling Ronaldo a “real-life superhero.”
“Cristiano has created stories on the pitch that I could never have written,” Vaughn said. “I look forward to creating inspiring movies with him.”
Together, they’ve already financed and produced two action films, with a third project currently in development. The studio plans to combine cutting-edge technology with classic filmmaking traditions to deliver high-impact, emotional, and entertaining cinema.
While official release dates have yet to be announced, updates are expected soon, building anticipation among both moviegoers and Ronaldo’s global fanbase.
