Conor McGregor Meets Actor, Who Wants to Play Him in His Biopic, at Spotify-Sponsored Concert

Conor McGregor is arguably one of the most talented and exciting fighters in combat sports history. The Irishman has had plenty of success in and out of the octagon. Recently, he met actor Jared Leto to discuss whether Leto would star in his biopic.

The two met at a Spotify-sponsored concert at which Kendrick Lamar was performing. This concert took place in Cannes. McGregor posted multiple photos of the two on Instagram, captioned, “Talkin plots with @jaredleto and not movie ones 🖤 @spotify.”

McGregor and Leto were seen smiling and having a good time. The two even posed in a fighting stance for the photo.

Conor McGregor Responds to Jared Leto

The Irish central posted an article in which Leto spoke about McGregor. In the article, Leto said,” If we do the UFC movie, if I was younger, I’d play Conor McGregor. I got the beard. What Conor does and what these guys and gals do is just extraordinary…. I’m too old to do Conor, probably, but you never know. We could maybe use some CGI.”

McGregor read this article and took to social media to respond. He quoted this article on Twitter, saying, “Jared Leto, I invite you to come and practice the part with me! @jaredleto.”

After their recent meeting in Cannes, hopefully, we will see the two stars work together. This film could be huge considering the fan base McGregor has.

Conor McGregor’s Hiatus

Conor McGregor has been out of action from the octagon since his last fight against Dustin Poirier.

This was the third time the two fighters were facing each other. Unfortunately for the Irishman, he would break his leg in the very first round of the fight.

McGregor could not continue and lost the fight via doctor’s stoppage. Since then, McGregor has undergone surgery and is in recovery. He spends most of his time in the gym and has bulked up. We will probably see McGregor move up a weight class for his next bout.
