Norbert Leo Butz exclusively told Us Weekly about preparing to play Bill Belichick in FX's 'American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez'
Norbert Leo Butz is glad he had limited knowledge of football — and Bill Belichick — before preparing to play the New England Patriots coach in American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez.
Butz admitted, “Knowing what I know now, I don't think I would have the confidence to play him. But at the time, I was just naive and dumb enough to say, 'Sure, why not? This looks like a fun part.'' American Sports Story, which debuted in September, is based on the 'Gladiator: Aaron Hernandez and Football Inc.' podcast, which focused on Hernandez's time as a tight end with the University of Florida Gators before his stint with the New England Patriots. In addition to Belichick, 72, football fans see plenty of fictional versions of familiar faces including Tim Tebow, Urban Meyer and Brian Murphy.
