I hope it turns out like Ray, and not the Michael Jordan biopic.

This movie will be a classic. Martin Scorsese is supposed to be directing this and it’s his first boxing film since Raging Bull. Jamie does a great Tyson voice, and is a phenomenal actor period. Plus he’s close with Mike and I’m sure is getting the green light to do a lot of shyt others may not have had if they tried to do this.

But do y’all remember that HBO movie called Tyson? :pachaha: A biopic where Michael Jai White was Tyson. Used to watch that shyt all the time back in the 90s. I’m sure this one will be miles better than the HBO biopic, but that one was still entertaining.

I don't think this true any longer. Scorcese's is supposed to making a film with Leo and Deniro for Netflix next. There's no director attached to this Tyson movie, which is a little disconcerting. Passion projects done always turn out great.

Jamie talked about it on the All The Smoke podcast which is why I said that. Unless things changed since that recording.
