Currently ranked 330th in the world, Eugeine said production work is about to get underway.
"We have a script. They're going to start trying to get actors attached to it. I can't believe this is real. They want to make a movie about something that happened to me. I'm just in shock," the former World No. 5 was quoted as saying by Tennis.com.
"We went to so many meetings in Los Angeles. So I was kind of involved in the process. Obviously, it's more credible and things like that. It really happened to me and to make it as kind of realistic as possible," she added.
The Canadian added that the release date for the movie is yet to be finalised .
