Guy Ritchie has signed up to direct a series of mini-movies for Nike.
The 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' director has been recruited by the sportswear giant to produce the unique adverts and has been asked to persuade his wife Madonna to star in them.
A source told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "Nike have commissioned Guy to put together some really cool feature-length adverts to last the entire commercial break. His brief is to make miniature movies with Nike gear as the star of the adverts.
"That's unless he can rope Madonna in to add her presence to the campaign!"
The couple are fitness fanatics and have converted the £6 million property next to their London home into a gym.
The Nike deal isn't the first time Guy has worked with his 'Material Girl' singer wife on an advertising campaign.
In 2001, he directed a short promotional film for BMW entitled 'Star', with Madonna playing a spoiled and arrogant celebrity.
Guy and Madonna have a seven-year-old son, Rocco, together, as well as a one-year-old adopted son, David Banda.
Madonna also has an 11-year-old daughter, Lourdes, from her relationship with personal trainer Carlos Leon.
