OK, with MBJ and Butler on board, that piques my interest 


Yeah, I like Powell and he was my second choice behind Butler for known guys. But my pops, who is OG MV stan, used to have the shyt on betamax, said Sonny broods, and that fits Butler better. He also thinks Damson would be a better Tubbs.

Just need someone to give MBJ a bag to drop out to do Creed 4 or some shyt so Damson can get the Tubbs role.Yup that's literally what my uncle said. He broods.
He also said even if you don't set it in the 80s, you want a certain vibe that 80s TV/film had for cops and detective. Brooding, quiet guys with short fuses, charismatic a$$holes, etc. Basically he said you want somebody who fits what MV was doing in the 80s but also what you saw in films like To Live & Die In LA. The guy who played Sonny could have easily played the role in that movie. Butler could play that guy too. And also Colin Farrell has that same vibe too.
Powell or Butler as Sonny.
Run it back with Damson as Tubbs.
