There are one and many Mike Tysons, but perhaps the most remembered is Tyson, who bit Evander Holyfield in 1997 and ripped off a piece of his ear in the middle of a fight for the heavyweight title.. With this event the mini-series begins ‘Mike’ (grand premiere Disney+Day, this Thursday, day 8), to the despair of a fictional Tyson who wants to acknowledge himself as the owner of his story and chronological order throughout eight quick episodes. “We didn’t even start there,” he complains. Rewind, no please.
Whether he’s talking to us about the ‘one-man show’ that serves as a narrative framework (he toured all over America with a similar show in 2013) or breaking the fourth wall during flashback scenes, Tyson is always commenting/correcting what we see is the meteoric rise in boxing and above all, discredit. The irony: What’s supposed to be a personal account isn’t going well with Tyson, who took to Instagram this summer to accuse Hulu of “stealing my life’s story and not paying me.”
Trevante RhodesThe great actor who turned out to be the (third) lead role in ‘Moonlight’ crosses his fingers as Tyson sees ‘Mike’ one day. “I know you will,” he tells us in a phone call. While not very similar physically, Rhodes knows how to accurately capture his sigmatism, physical tics, or more importantly, his contradictory essence: “During my preparation and filming, I was able to understand Tyson,” the actor explains. . While it may not seem like it at all, she’s still attached to the little boy she once was. I can relate“.
fights everywhere
Manager Craig Gillespie and screenwriter Steve Rogers They had previously worked together on ‘I, Tonya’, a disrespectful look at a controversial sports figure. With a dynamic, constantly moving camera as usual, Gillespie spends half an hour covering busy time zones. First, Tyson’s childhood: his life as “a fat kid that everyone hesitates” in the Brownsville neighborhood of New York, known as the American crime capital in 1971. Shoot both on the street and at home. And he finally gives them back.
Because of his troubled character, he went to a notorious Tryon juvenile prison, where he discovered he was good at “something that wasn’t illegal”: boxing. Sooner or later, Cus D’Amato’s (big harvey keitel), came to adopt Tyson after his mother died. D’Amato died before he saw Tyson become the youngest world heavyweight champion in history. Luckily, she was accused of ill-treatment or sentenced to prison for rape without seeing her either.
any intention
Tyson found solace in the arms of his short-lived first wife, actress Robin Givens: eight months later, he filed for divorce, alleging his wife’s abuse. According to Tyson, the only villains here were Givens or his mother, who allegedly concocted an entire plan (including fake pregnancies and abortions) to keep his money. The media is stuck with this latest version. “I wasn’t even born when they got married,” says the actress. Laura Harris (Camille from ‘Hollywood), Robin in the show. “I haven’t experienced it and have no idea. I tried to approach the character neutrally. Or trying to empathize with someone who has probably been mistreated in the press. We all have good sides, bad sides, and all kinds of intentions.“.
corresponds to Russell Hornsby The challenge of bringing human quality to Don King, the quirky boxing promoter who scammed Tyson during his comeback in the mid-90s. Hornsby said, “I read Jack Newfield’s book ‘Only in America,’ an unauthorized biography to shape my character. I’ve also watched a lot of videos on YouTube, I won’t deny it. As an actor, you’ve done all this after guessing for acting and creating a character. “I didn’t want to imitate it, I wanted to find and deliver its complex core.”
