Former Ireland manager Jack Charlton will be the subject of a brand new documentary, which is set for a cinematic release.
The film will be produced by the Noah Media Group, who also made Bobby Robson: More Than A Manager and Steve McQueen: The Man & Le Mans.
And the film, which will cover not only his incredible journey with the Ireland team to the Italia 90 World Cup but also his storied playing career, is set to be released in Irish cinemas by the Summer of 2020.
Jack Charlton’s son John Charlton said: “We are delighted to be working with Noah Media Group on what will be the definitive film on my father’s life.
"It will be fascinating to see how the film links his life as a husband, father and brother to his incredible achievements in football, as both a player and a manager.”
And Gabriel Clarke, one of the film's producers added: “I remember Jack Charlton being as surprised as anyone when he got the Ireland manager’s job in 1986.
"What followed changed lives, altered careers and transformed a nation and it is a privilege to team up with the Charlton family and so many of those who made it possible to get to the heart of this funny, emotional and inspiring story.”
The Summer release date will coincide with the 30 year anniversary of Italia 90, which was the Republic of Ireland's first ever World Cup.
