Actor Jamie Foxx will reportedly be transformed into Mike Tyson for a new biopic.
Foxx, 46, would be transformed by the CGI technology that changed Brad Pitt from an old man to a baby in “The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button”, reports >mirror.co.uk .
The boxer, 48, who was the youngest heavyweight champion at 20, also said “Raging Bull” director Martin Scorsese, would be involved.
Tyson said: “Me and Jamie Foxx are in discussion, and we gonna do it. Within a year to 18 months, we’re going to do the Mike Tyson story and he’s going to portray me, and now they have this new animation; because you know Jamie’s pretty much my age so he can’t portray me but they have this new system.”
The film may be titled “Champion”.
