And there seems to be no shortage of confidence for the Englishman. Pimblett is already dreaming of becoming one of the biggest names in the sport and perhaps one day even having a Hollywood film based on his life. In an interview with GIVEMESPORT, the 27-year-old suggested possible casting choices if such a film was made. The rising UFC star said that YouTuber and The Inbetweeners star James 'Jay Cartwright' Buckley would be an apt choice to play him in the movie. He added that American actor Owen Wilson would be a good choice to portray an older Pimblett: “Owen Wilson probably or Jay Cartwright of the Inbetweeners, think I’d have Jay playing me at my age now, I’d have Owen Wilson playing me when I’m a bit older. We just need to find a little child version of me and we’re flying.” 'The Baddy' is currently 3-0 in the UFC. Interestingly, the Englishman is reportedly set to compete at UFC 282 scheduled for December 10 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
