Cristiano Ronaldo and British film producer Matthew Vaughn have started an independent film studio, in what will be the Portuguese football star’s first foray in the movie-making business.

Ronaldo and Vaughn have financed and produced two action films together and are about to start a third in the same series, their UR•MARV independent film studio said in a statement. It didn’t say how much the two partners plan to invest in the 50-50 joint venture.
