Rafa to Star In Movie

Posted: 30 Sep 2008 04:38 PM CDT

Well it looks like Rafa has gotten bored of tearing up the ATP tour and has decided to give acting a try. Reports are speculating that the Spanish bull is to play in the upcoming Steven Spielberg produced flick called “The Trial of the Chicago 7.” The film is based on the trial of the protestors at the 1968 Democratic convention and the cast includes Will Smith, Kevin Space, Taye Diggs, Jeff Daniels and Tiffany Pollard (reality tv star on Flavor of Love). The film is set to start production in January 2009 and to be in theatres December of the same year. Even though this is purely speculation at this point, one must wonder why of all the posible movie rolls would Nadal be in a movie like this one? Maybe this is to go with his new serious side (no more sleeveless).
