Jamie Foxx has landed the role he’s always coveted as he gets to play Mike Tyson in an upcoming biopic. Not only will Foxx play his dream role, but he gets the honor of having the film directed by legendary Holly icon Martin Scorsese.
The film is also written by Terrence Winter, who also teamed up with Scorsese to provide the epic biopic The Wolf of Wall Street. Scorsese had not confirmed that he is doing the film, but Foxx seemed pretty confident when he made the announcement on Power 106’s The Breakfast Club.
