UFC superstar Conor McGregor has finally met the man he hopes to play ‘Notorious’ when they inevitably turn his life into a movie.
Oscar winner Jared Leto ran into the former UFC dualweight champion and the two men seemed to strike up an immediate friendship.

“Speaking of plots with Jared Leto and not movies,” McGregor posted on Instagram along with several photos of him and the Hollywood actor.
The meeting comes three months after the Dallas Buyers Club actor expressed interest in playing either McGregor or UFC president Dana White on the big screen.
“If we do the UFC movie, if I was younger, I would play Conor McGregor. I have the beard,” Leto said in March.
“What Conor does and what these guys and girls do is just extraordinary.
“I’m too old to do Conor probably, but you never know. Maybe we could use some CGI.”
McGregor certainly seemed enthusiastic about the idea and offered the 50-year-old movie star the opportunity to train with him upon hearing the news.
