The street dancer, who won last Saturday's grand final despite suffering a spine condition, has attracted the interest of movie bosses.
Producers are apparently struck by the similarities between the 14-year-old's life and 2000 movie Billy Elliot, which revolves around a young ballet dancer who overcomes prejudice to achieve his dream.
A source told The Sun: "They reckon George’s story could be a perfect follow-up to Billy."
A film based on the life of last year's winner Paul Potts is also said to be in the works.
