Tom Brady would want this famous actor to play him in a movie

Tom Brady isn't a stranger to the silver screen, but he's a little too busy to star in his own biopic.

So, who would the New England Patriots quarterback want to play himself in a movie about his life? That was the question Brady fielded Monday night from a California firefighter during his weekly radio spot on Westwood One.

His answer was predictable, to say the least.

"I'm going with Mark Wahlberg," Brady said. "A Boston legend, (from) Dorchester, one of the just 'grind it out' kind of guys."

Why are we not surprised?

Brady and Wahlberg famously teamed up for a scene in "Ted 2," and Wahlberg is a die-hard Boston sports fan, so we're sure he'd jump at the chance to play TB12 in a movie. (He'll have to drop that Boston accent, though.)

Any movie about Brady's life may have to mention Ray Lewis; the veteran QB said earlier in the interview that the former Baltimore Ravens linebacker is the player he feared most during his NFL career.
