Football icon Cristiano Ronaldo has officially stepped into the world of cinema with the launch of his own independent film studio, UR•MARV.
This bold move is in collaboration with acclaimed British filmmaker Matthew Vaughn, known for blockbuster hits like Kingsman and Kick-Ass.
The newly established studio will focus on high-energy action films, with two movies already in production and a third on the horizon.
Ronaldo, who has built a powerful brand beyond the pitch, shared his excitement about this next chapter in his entrepreneurial journey:
“This is an exciting chapter for me, as I look ahead to new ventures in business.”
Vaughn praised Ronaldo’s larger-than-life persona and storytelling prowess on the field, saying:
“Cristiano has created stories on the pitch that I could never have written, and I look forward to creating inspiring movies with him – he’s a real-life superhero.”
Although financial specifics of their equal partnership haven’t been disclosed, the launch comes at a time when streaming giants like Netflix and Disney+ are investing heavily in independent productions — giving UR•MARV a prime opportunity to deliver fresh, thrilling content to global audiences.
Outside of football, Ronaldo has diversified his investments over the years. His portfolio includes:
- A luxury hotel chain
- A porcelain manufacturing company
- A Portuguese media company
- A tennis and padel club in Lisbon
Now at 40, Ronaldo continues to push boundaries, proving that his influence stretches far beyond the football field.
