A biopic about NBA agent Rich Paul is heading our way soon, and Damson Idris is reportedly taking the lead role.
On Thursday, Damson stopped by ‘The Breakfast Club,’ where he revealed the news to the radio hosts. Damson said he would be playing Paul but did not share any other details about the biopic.
“I am about to play Rich Paul. It is time we start cherishing black moguls, and Rich is someone people need to know. This guy has completely changed the game, and I am happy and fortunate to call him a big brother… I can’t wait to honor his story,” the ‘Snowfall’ actor said.
He added, “It is going to be amazing man. He completely transformed the game. I am just completely inspired by those people. I am fortunate to be in some really good circles. I am learning.”
Paul is most famous for being the sports agent to Lebron James. Paul met Lebron when the NBA star was still in high school. In more recent news, Paul has been making headlines for his relationship with singer Adele. The two have been dating since 2021 after meeting at an awards show in the UK.
