Cristiano Ronaldo is venturing into the world of cinema with ‘UR-Marv’, an independent studio he co-founded with director Matthew Vaughn. This new business venture marks a milestone for the Portuguese footballer, who expressed in an interview: “It’s an exciting chapter for me as I look for new business opportunities.” The studio has a vision to merge innovative technology with a traditional base, an attempt to transform the film industry.
