(CNN) - Al Pacino will reportedly portray legendary Penn State football coach Joe Paterno in an upcoming movie.

The flick will depict Paterno's life and his highly-publicized fall from grace.

Pacino has played a football coach before-- when he starred in the 1999 Oliver Stone film "Any Given Sunday."
