1. A 52 year old playing a 53 year old about his life when he was in his 20's? They better get the same crew that worked on Benjamin Button for the CGI

2. Another reason for Foxx's ego to inflate............I liked him better when he was Wanda.

It's actually funny that many moons ago there was a little show called in living color where Foxx did the funniest impersonation of Tyson.

Foxx didn't convey the physicality of Tookie Williams in that film at all. I can't see him doing any better with Tyson. 60 pull ups ect aint gonna cut it so theyre gonna have to have him on a stack of steroids seldom seen outside the track and field scene.

This new Tyson movie will basically be a two hour long In Living Color skit. It might be a decent movie, but I could picture people laughing during the serious scenes. I can't take Jamie Foxx seriously.

I agree. Seems like a stretch to have a great comedian playing one of the most intimidating fighters of all time...

Even if he gets super jacked for this, his face just cracks me up.

You sound like a hater. Make something of your life instead of hating

You laughed during the "Ray" movie too when he played Ray Charles?
