The Mike Tyson film will be produced by Foxx's own manager, Rick Yorn, while its screenplay will be written by Terence Winter, who's known for his work in the 2013 film Wolf of Wolf Street.
Aside from the upcoming Mike Tyson biopic, the former boxer has his own life published in a book entitled, 'The Undisputed Truth'. Interestingly, the autobiography made it to the New York Times Bestseller List.
