Prince Albert of Monaco would like Vin Diesel to play him in a movie.
The 57-year-old royal, who’s married to the former South African Olympic swimmer Princess Charlene, is set to have a movie made about his life and has suggested the Hollywood superstar as his ideal candidate.
Looking forward to the film, titled ‘Royal Ice’, Prince Albert admitted he hadn’t "really given that much thought" to who might play the role, "though I hope it would be someone reasonably athletic".
He told PEOPLE: "I really have no preference, maybe Vin Diesel or someone else who is slightly balding?"
‘Royal Ice’ will tell the story of how the prince led a bobsleigh team to the Olympics and has already been likened to the comedy classic ‘Cool Runnings’.
The prince, however, has been quick to downplay the obvious comparison, and also insisted that the movie was not his idea.
He said: "We’re not trying to make ‘Cool Runnings’, which is an excellent film."
‘Royal Ice’ is set to be released in 2018, which will mark the 30th anniversary of the team’s first Olympic appearance.
