It is reported that the rise and fall of Fermanagh businessman Sean Quinn is to be made into a film, with Kevin Spacey and Omagh-born actor Gerard McSorley both tipped for the lead role.

The Irish Independent reports that the film will be made by Dublin-based Soho Moon Productions and production is planned for next year.

Soho Moon owner James Mitchell's credits as a producer include Into the West, Croupier and the Spacey and McSorley-starring Ordinary Decent Criminal.

The script for the film will be written by Northern Irish Emmy winner Ron Hutchinson, whose credits include The Burning Season and Murderers Among Us: The Simon Wiesenthal Story.
