ESPN reports actor Al Pacino will play Joe Paterno in the upcoming film tentatively titled “Happy Valley,” about the former Penn State coach.

The movie is based on Joe Posnanski’s best-seller “Paterno.”

"'Happy Valley' reunites the 'Scarface' and 'Carlito's Way' team of De Palma and Pacino for the third time and I can't think of a better duo to tell this story of a complex, intensely righteous man who was brought down by his own tragic flaw," said producer Edward R. Pressman in a statement about the film to be directed by Brian De Palma.

Though the plot remains unknown, the book “Paterno” follows the final years of the famed and embattled college football coach whose career ended in 2011 amid the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal.

The Los Angeles Times reports the film is expected to come out in 2014.
