As much as so many of us hoped Mike Tyson would play himself in his own biopic, it’s looking like Jamie Foxx might be taking on the roll of the former boxer instead.“Me and Jamie Foxx are in discussion, and we gonna do it,” Tyson told The Daily Mirror. “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 “system” Tyson is referring to is CGI technology — the same type that helped reverse-age Brad Pitt in “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” the Mirror writes.The project, which according to Variety.com, really is in the works and could snag Terence Winter (“Wolf of Wall Street”) to pen its screenplay, still has a ways to go, however.
