Please let them land a good director for this. Jamie is gonna kill it, even at 50, as long as he puts the muscle on he's good. You see what they did with Michael Douglas in Antman? They're aging De Niro down like 50 years in The Irishman, Jamie will be fine.

Jamie could pull it off, but I don't think I could take him serious, hell I can't even really vibe with his music cuz I can't take it serious. Don't get me wrong, he's a great actor overall and a terrific character actor specifically, probably just me, but I think you need a younger, less known actor partly for credibility purposes, but also because Mike was such a polarizing figure that the viewer needs to fully detach the character from the actor in a way that Jamie wouldn't be able to do for me.

My vote, if he could perfect the speech and bulk up about 20 lbs would be my nikka Rotimi

It's really that simple; you just offered the problem and the solution in a most succinct post. :wow:
But in hollywood it's not that simple. And thus my fukking sigh. :stopitslime:
