"Paul Potts has revealed that he has held meetings with Paramount about a movie based on his life. The opera singer, who won Britain&amp;#039;s Got Talent in 2007, admitted that a film based on his sudden rise to fame is in the early stages of production. &amp;quot;I met some guys from Paramount when I was in LA and they seem pretty serious about it,&amp;quot; he told DS. &amp;quot;But things like this often go very quiet for a while and then explode. It&amp;#039;s still on, but I will only truly believe it when it completely happens.&amp;quot; He continued: &amp;quot;I have had a meeting with Justin Zackham, the guy who wrote the screenplay for The Bucket List, so it might be happening.  &amp;quot;I never assume anything until it actually happens and it is still in the fairly early stages at the moment.&amp;quot; When asked who might play him in the film, the former mobile phone salesman said: &amp;quot;I think the cast is something that will be left down to the film company because they will have a better idea than I do.  &amp;quot;But I would be very interested to know who they&amp;#039;d get to play me. I&amp;#039;ve always joked about it with my wife. She always says that she would like to play herself and that Johnny Depp should play me.&amp;quot; &amp;gt; Click here to read our full interview with reality TV champion Paul Potts "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
