If Jamie foxx made that up himself, he would make a dope director. He's got the vision.


That was beautiful.





Still need to know the writer and Director. Definitely not going to be Scorsese as he hasn’t directed anything black since the Bad video. Plus he’s gearing up to shoot a new flick with Leonardo Di’caprio and Robert Deniro.

A second biographical TV series about Mike Tyson is in the works – this one starring Jamie Foxx as the boxing legend and exec produced by Antoine Fuqua and Martin Scorsese.

Foxx, who won an Oscar for his portrayal of Ray Charles in 2004 biopic Ray, will star in and exec produce Tyson, a limited series directed and exec produced by Fuqua and exec produced by Raging Bull director Scorsese and Tyson himself. Fledgling screenwriter Colin Preston wrote the pilot and is in the process of writing the full series.

The project was previously set up as a feature film back in 2014 with Foxx attached to play Tyson and Terence Winter writing the script. It has now become a limited TV series and is set to be taken out to market shortly.

What age he supposed to be portraying Mike at lol

Been hearing about this joint for years so this made me wonder especially with all the stalling taking place

Are gonna have 50+ Jamie do young to middle aged Tyson? shyt better off using that DeNiro CGI on Tyson himself if that’s the case

This project really got me curious
