DeAndre Hopkins‘ mom is getting a movie made about her inspirational life … and now, the Houston Texans superstar is giving TMZ Sports his perfect fit for her role — Oprah!
If ya missed it … Sabrina Greenlee is set to be the subject of a new Hollywood picture — ’cause her story is amazing.
Back in 2002, she was ambushed by a woman who threw a dangerous mixture of drain cleaner and Clorox bleach at her face … which blinded her immediately.
The attack nearly killed her — and sent her into deep depression afterward — but she battled back to be an awesome mother and an active community leader.
So, when we got her famous son, DeAndre, out in Bev Hills this past weekend … we had to ask, who should play Momma in the flick??
DeAndre first threw out Issa Rae … but then said Oprah would be a GREAT fit, telling us, “My mom’s older, so Oprah would be dope.”
Of course, the decision won’t be up to the football star … he tells us BRON Studios will be the ones making the call there.
But, DeAndre is stoked for the new movie and his mom regardless, telling us, “Man, it’s awesome.”
