JAMIE Foxx, Oscar-winner for the film Ray, has started working with former heavyweight boxer Mike Tyson on his a biopic of his rollercoaster life and career. Tyson said:

“Jamie Foxx and I will be working together. He will play me in the film about my life. We have already had several discussions about it…..Even when I was training for a fight I would drink. This is the first time I have been clean and sober in my whole life.”

Tyson, who is currently fighting bankruptcy, admits he struggled to cope even during the peak of his success. No release date for the movie has been set.
