Tiger Woods remains one of the most recognizable athletes in sports. And the 15-time major championship winner's life could soon be chronicled on film.

Amazon MGM Studios has secured the rights to Kevin Cook's "The Tiger Slam: The Inside Story of the Greatest Golf Ever Played," a studio spokesperson confirmed to People. 

The movie from Amazon will be based on the book that hit shelves in December. Former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama are "in talks" to join the project through their company, Higher Ground Productions, according to Deadline.

Actor Will Smith won an Academy Award for his portrayal of Richard Williams, the father and former coach of tennis greats Serena and Venus Williams in "King Richard." The Williams sisters were listed as the film's executive producers.
