Rebekah Vardy and Coleen Rooney were embroiled in a court battle earlier this year and now a drama has been made.
Images of Vardy v Rooney: A Courtroom Drama, an upcoming two-part special, have been released by Channel 4.
Scheduled for broadcast in December, the production stars Chanel Cresswell, Natalia Tena and Michael Sheen.
And these first look images display just how much they resemble their roles’ real life counterparts when in costume.

The film recreates the High Court defamation case that followed the Wagatha Christie melodrama on social media in 2019.

That played out earlier this year, making headlines across the internet.
Not only were the lives of the two WAGs at the centre of the case – tabloid favourites for many years – brought into focus, their legal teams made the spotlight, too.
Indeed, courtroom events involving the likes of barrister David Sherborne nearly came in for as much press attention as Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy did from the photographers outside court.
Written by journalist and documentary maker Chris Atkins, Vardy v Rooney: A Courtroom Drama was created from real court transcripts.
And as well as likely quoting verbatim from what was said in court, analysis from representations in the media are also expected.
Director Oonagh Kearney previously said: “This trial utterly captivated the public with its daily feed of entertaining exchanges and jaw-dropping reveals.
“But behind this, is a story of two women under constant public scrutiny, fighting for their reputations.”
