Discovered in prison by&nbsp;<\/strong>Bobby Stewart, he started his professional career at 18, and quickly experienced a meteoric rise. After these promising beginnings, Mike Tyson oscillated between prison, drugs, stinging defeats and million-dollar victories. A tempestuous and violent path that could only seduce Hollywood.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>It was in 2014 that a biopic project became a reality when&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.numero.com\/musique\/migos-quavo-daps-offset-drake-jamie-foxx-culture-walk-it-talk-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jamie Foxx<\/a>&nbsp;agreed to play the boxer on the big screen. A year later the American channel Fox announced it was in talks with Martin Scorsese who&rsquo;d agreed to direct it. But then in 2017, the project stalled. It took three more years to finally get the go-ahead. In a video interview with Hollywood producer Mark Birnbaum on June 19th, Jamie Foxx finally revealed a few nuggets of information. When asked whether the film was happening or now, the man who played Django Freeman declared &nbsp;&ldquo;<em>definitely yes<\/em>&rdquo;. The very same day, Jamie Foxx shared some images of his impressive transformation on Instagram, adding &ldquo;<em>The transformation begins&#8230; &ldquo;FINDING MIKE&rdquo;.

Beyond the impressive career of the actor, the two men have long been friends and this connection undoubtedly motivated the choice. Thirty years of affection that all started in a theatre: while performing his stand-up show, aged 22, Jamie Foxx had dared to make a joke about the sportsman, without suspecting for a second that Mike Tyson himself was in the room.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Now we&rsquo;ll just have to wait and see which events the writers will include in the script<\/strong>:&nbsp;will the rape of<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>Desiree Washington&nbsp;for which Mike Tyson was sentenced to 6 years in jail in 1992 be spared? Will the script focus only on his sporting career? Jamie Foxx seems to be so close to the ex-boxer that a half-hearted portrait seems highly unlikely.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the tender age of 20,&nbsp;Mike
