Tom Brady's NFL career is coming to a close. He's probably not going to retire in the next year or two. But within five years, we'd expect him to hang up his cleats. And when he does, it sounds like he already knows what he wants to do with his life. Tom Brady haters are not going to like it.

According to a source who spoke with Star Magazine recently (we know, we know), Brady wants to become—you ready for this?—a "huge movie star" when his NFL career is over. Brady, who appeared in Ted and will be featured in Entourage, has apparently caught the acting bug. And he reportedly wants to see what would happen if he took it seriously.

"At 37, Tom knows he only has a few seasons left before retirement," the source told Star. "He's thinking ahead and believes he could become a huge movie star. He's used to being a superstar. After winning the Super Bowl again, he's thinking about new challenges outside of football."

Star isn't exactly the most reliable publication in the world, so take this report with a grain of salt. But it's not that unbelievable to think about Brady transitioning to Hollywood, right? So if does make a move from football to the silver screen, don't be surprised.
