Jamie Foxx’s ongoing health condition has raised many questions about the actor. The actor was hospitalized last month. But, his reason for being admitted to the hospital was not revealed to the public. However, since then, the actor has been reportedly discharged from the hospital. And is believed to be recovering from his medical condition. It is no secret that Foxx is the number one choice to portray the life of Mike Tyson on the big screen. The movie is also rumored to involve Academy Award Winning director Martin Scorcese. But, the recent health scare for the Hollywood actor has raised numerous questions about his role as Mike Tyson in a potential movie.

In a recent episode of Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, the 56-year-old subtly dodged a question the guest had about his rumored movie. In place of answering the question, Tyson had another question for the guest, which swayed the two away from the topic. It should be noted that it is unclear what the future of the movie holds and how the ongoing health issue of Jamie Foxx affects it.

Mike Tyson ‘ignores’ the million-dollar question

‘Iron’ Mike was recently joined by American rapper Tony Yayo for a podcast episode. And the rapper was eager to know about the potential upcoming movie based on the life of the former heavyweight champion. But, it seems like it wasn’t the day for him to know the answer to that question.

Yayo asked, “Mike, let me ask you a question. When is your movie you want to shoot?”  The former champ did not let Yayo finish his question and intervened with a rather odd fact. Tyson responded, “Can I ask you another question?” He then told the rapper that he used to eat starch when he didn’t have money. This revelation sent Yayo in total disbelief, and he was shocked to hear that. Tyson further reminded the rapper of the starch box. And all of this led the rapper to ask ‘Iron’ Mike again if he really used to eat that. And just like that, the conversation took a turn.

It seems like Tyson was not in the mood to answer the question about the movie. And, with Jamie Foxx’s condition, the curiosity among the fans has only increased. It should be noted that another series about Tyson’s life is streaming on Hulu. But Tyson reportedly denies any association with that series and even revealed that they didn’t take any permission from him to shoot it.
