Antonio Brown has lived a life that can only be seen in movies in the eyes of fans. Now, there might be one hitting the big screen about the former NFL star's life. Actor Michael B. Jordan is producing and may be starring in a movie about Brown's life.

The premise of the movie is titled "The Dwelling" and is about a football player discovering a house underneath his backyard. Yet, all the hits he took on the football field started to make the player uncertain of what's reality versus fiction.

Many fans took to Twitter to share their feelings about the actor's film and whether it will be about the Super Bowl-winning wide receiver:

Other fans noted how the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell reacted after hearing about the CTE thriller:

Antonio Brown spent 12 seasons in the NFL, nine with the Pittsburgh Steelers, one with the New England Patriots, and two with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Some fans felt that the upcoming movie is about the former wideout due to some of his actions.

He notably left during a Week 17 game in the 2021 season by taking off his jersey and other gear before waving to the crowd on his way out. He's also taken to social media to troll former teammate Tom Brady and his now ex-wife Gisele Bundchen.

The four-time All-Pro was later cut by the Buccaneers following his actions and focused on his music. He also became the president of Donda Sports, an organization run by rapper Kanye West, last February.


What is Antonio Brown doing now?

Antonio Brown purchased a stake in the Albany Empire of the National Arena League last month. His father, Eddie Brown, played for the franchise in the 1990s. At the introductory press conference, the former Steelers star spoke about being back in Albany and the community.

Brown said:

"For me, to be in a family-oriented city like Albany, being here with my dad and my kids and just giving the community and players the opportunity to live out their dreams"
