![]() Then, I’m sitting with Mike Tyson when we go to pitch the idea, and the difference of Mike Tyson at that time was, when I called him to ask how’s he doing-voice changed, different demeanor, and this is what we wanna capture in the movie. So I watched his life from that vantage point. It gets a standing ovation, Mike Tyson comes up to me, says, “There he is! You funny, come here.” And I started hanging out with Mike Tyson at twenty-one years old. ![]() Jamie Foxx: And the guy Rodney says, “Mike says do the joke! And that s- better be funny.” So I do the joke, “I’m Mike Tyson,” do the joke, I think it was me as Mike Tyson going through Kentucky Fried Chicken drive-thru, ordering, “Can I get slaw? Chicken and biscuits and slaw?” Whatever it was. Michelle Monaghan: Oh my gosh, that’s crazy. Michelle Monaghan: And he just told me to keep going. So it’s like, you know, you taste that little chalky thing, I’m like “Oh yeah, something is not attached!” ![]() Jamie Foxx: Yeah, but you know it wasn’t my tooth, it was the porcelain that’s over my tooth. Michelle Monaghan: I wish I could get ahold of that footage, because I really-I hit him in the mouth, and I chipped his tooth. Jamie Foxx: And the cameras, they were running, but it wasn’t time for me-I didn’t get a chance to move my head. Jamie Foxx: She hit me in the mouth, bro. And so when we got a chance to do our thing, and Michelle can really, she can really swing. So when we got a chance to do our thing together. Because things were sort of running together. Jamie Foxx: It was a lot! And you know, we didn’t have a lot of time, at certain points. And so, that’s what you do, man, and then you get it out there and tell people, “Go check it out.”Īnd how much-you just talked about the fight scene-how much choreography actually went into that? Because you have a great scene, my favorite scene, in the kitchen, too. We get a chance to do this tango, and then that fight scene was so much fun, you know, pulling that off was great. Like, when you’re working in this business and you get the chance to work with people that are real cool, you respect.like Michelle, is great. ” So without a doubt, it was right up my alley. I thought, “Okay, yes, this is what I want to do, and I want to do it with this guy. And so, when I read that great action scene, cause it read so quickly-the script-and then it culminated in that, I was like, “Yes!” And she was still so tough as nails all the way through that. Someone who’s very tough and determined and capable, and physical. Michelle Monaghan: I mean, I love action films too, but I was really drawn to the character, because this is a characters that not oftentimes I get the opportunity to play.
