A new limited biopic series centered around the life and career of the late John Madden is in its beginning stages.

The series, which is set to be titled "All Madden," will be directed by Gavin O'Connor and written by Alex Sohn, according to Deadline Hollywood.

O'Connor is known for his films, "Miracle," "The Way Back," "Warrior" and "The Accountant."

NFL legend Tom Brady will help produce the film. His production company, 199 Productions, along with Todd Lieberman's Hidden Pictures, Lit Entertainment Group, and Religion of Sports, will be part of the production team.

“I grew up admiring John Madden, first as a coach, then as a commentator," Brady said in Deadline Hollywood's article. "I loved John’s passion for the game, especially his insatiable appetite for educating audiences about football. He welcomed fans with that warm smile, infectious laugh, and exceptional knowledge of the game, making everyone feel as if John were watching the broadcast right next to them on their living room sofa.

"On behalf of 199 Productions, I’m honored to collaborate with Virginia and Mike Madden, my co-founder at Religion of Sports, Gotham Chopra, and the rest of the creative team, in telling the iconic story of a family man who revolutionized not only the game but the culture of football.”
