Recently-retired Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady has decided to play himself in a Super Bowl road-trip comedy entitled "80 for Brady."

The upcoming Super Bowl road-trip comedy will also be produced by Brady. People can also expect to see Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Rita Moreno, and Sally Field as four Patriots fans, according to a CBS Sports News report.

Borys Kit of The Hollywood Reporter said that Brady was deeply "involved with the inception of the project."

The premise of the film would be about taking a road trip to watch Brady and the Pats battle the Atlanta Falcons in Super Bowl LI in 2017.

Brady led the Patriots to a comeback win over the Falcons to win New England's fifth Super Bowl championship.

Fox 13 News reported that the film will be directed by Kyle Marvin with production set for this spring.

Tom Brady NFL Retirement

Tom Brady announced his retirement from football after 22 seasons, in which he won seven Super Bowl titles.

Many sources noted Brady's decision to retire is based on several factors, including his health and family, according to an ESPN News report.

Don Yee, Brady's agent, delayed commenting on the former quarterback's future at the time. Yee said in a statement that Brady will be the only person to express his plans with complete accuracy.

The Buccaneers tried to make a pitch to sway Brady's decision, asking him to play one more year. However, the Tampa Bay team recognized that the effort is not expected to have an impact.

Buccaneers' coach Bruce Arians earlier said that Brady had not notified him or the team of his plans to retire from his football career.

Brady won seven Lombardi trophies, which is the most championships won by a single player in NFL history. He also won five Super Bowl MVPs.
