Foxx Takes On Knockout Role
Jamie Foxx will play iconic boxing champion Mike Tyson in a new movie documenting his life.
Tyson, who will produce the film, said: "Jamie Fox and I will be working together.
He will play me in the film about my life. We already talked about it several times."
The 41-year-old boxer's career hit controversy when he pleaded guilty to one felony count of cocaine possession and one misdemeanour count of driving under the influence.
Although now claiming to be drug free, Tyson admitted he was never "completely sober" in his heyday of boxing.
He is currently serving three years' probation.
